It was a sad story (I never cried tho). Very impactful and really showed a dark side that people try to hide; child labor, selling humans and even a bit sexism. I hated the uncle and how he is just forgiven now (even though she didn’t forgive him, she is still following him). I hated that the mom died as well, my hope was that the girl would escape and on her own way get back home and meet her mother and brother. But well well 🤷‍♀️
