Living in the impoverished village in the Himalayas, Lakshmi knows how difficult a life could be, especially for a woman. Unlike her peers from big cities and rich countries, the girl has to combine school and numerous chores. Since the death of her father, the family experiences the worst times. One day the stepfather makes up his mind to sell Lakshmi. In order to avoid quarrels and fights, he tells everyone that the girl is going to work as a maiden in a house of a rich family. However, it is not true. The man sells her to a pimp, who takes her to India.
