Fatima has become an activist to challenge sex trade in her community. Married off to a pimp as a child-bride and expected to become a sex-worker by her in-laws, she has a genuine knowledge of and access to the women in her community. Fatima tries desperately hard to prevent her children going into the sex trade. She divorces her husband and as we follow her personal ups and downs: falling in love again, trying to start a new family, we find out more about why she chose to fight against the abuse and exploitation that has become systemic in her community. Despite the forces of police corruption and community ties hampering her efforts, Fatima appears to be rewarded both as an activist and in her personal life. But there is growing resentment and Fatima’s hopes appear to be constantly overwhelmed by the challenges facing her and her new family.
