Jasmine was born in a brothel to a sex worker. The children of sex workers are so stigmatized in the community that they are not allowed to go to school, and Jasmine will therefore most likely have to begin sex work in two or three years. Akhi’s efforts to end such stigmatization will create a better future for these young girls.
