A lyrical story about lost childhood, set against the powerful backdrop of child slavery and human trafficking. It is an emotional yet inspiring tale about a nine-year-old girl, Jhalki, who is street-smart and clever, searching for her seven-year-old brother, Babu, who is suddenly thrown into an inhumane world of child labor, with no respite from a grim, dark, and depressing workplace. Armed with an intimate folk tale about a tireless sparrow, her own ingenious efforts, and her charm, Jhalki navigates her quest and ultimately succeeds in freeing her brother, along with thousands of other enslaved children affected by this insidious practice that impacts over 200 million children worldwide.
