After being abducted and thrown into the inhumane world of human trafficking, 17-year-old Ahalya, a girl from the lower castes in Odisha grapples with the concepts of prostitution, religious discrimination and the underworld. With every passing day, as she rises through the brothel’s hierarchy, she faces questions of her own existence and identity. This is her journey as she struggles to rediscover her own self and find solace amidst the chaos that is her life.
