SD

Saraswati is a Hindu goddess traditionally linked to prostitution. Here in Kolkata sex workers are forced to live in extremely poor hygienic and human conditions, exploited and marginalized by a male-centric society, which considers them like the scum of the earth. It then emerges a portrait of a humanity that does not take in account the fundamental human rights of women who are engaged in a solitary and difficult struggle for their own survival, solely protected by their goddess.
