Women on the Frontline: Nepal Part 3 of 3

Deserted by her husband and with four children to support, 24-year-old Sushma from a remote village in Nepal was taken to India and sold to a brothel for $250. Unlike most victims of sexual slavery, however, Sushma managed to escape her captors and return home. In this film we document the legal and logistical difficulties of staunching the flow of an estimated 12,000 young women who are trafficked across the open Indian border every year, and meet some of the women on the front line trying to put a stop to the trade. We follow Sushma as she sets out to find the man who lured her to Kolkata. Sushma's trafficker is cornered and admits to his role. She returns to her village and is re-united with her children.
