A young mother named Meena was prostituted at the age of 12. She had a son and daughter 1 year apart. Her children were taken from her at birth. She fought to get them back but failed. One day she ran away to get help. The police had no interest. So she married a pharmacist and went back several times to the Brothel to get her children back. Her son was the first to escape. With the help of his mom, and a organization called Apne Aap, they got the girl back. By now she was 13 and is in the hospital recovering from beatings and internal injuries. However, the trafficker is after Meena, her children, and the organization that helped free them. Their lives are threatened every day due to their bravery
