“My name is Lakshmi.
I am from Nepal.
I am thirteen years old.”
That much she is sure of. Lakshmi’s and her family live in a small mountain village in Nepal and are incredibly poor. She is innocent, enjoys the simple things in life and isn’t afraid of a little hard work.
However, when the harsh monsoons destroy the family crop, their only lifeline, her life is also devastated. Lakshmi believes that she is being sent away to work as a maid in the city, but it isn’t long before she realizes she is trapped, sold into the world of prostitution.
Does she have the strength to survive in this cruel world? What choice does she have?
