What if the girls once trapped in child prostitution became the ones to end it?

Together with JWT and the Dutch NGO Free a Girl, I directed a film about the School for Justice — a groundbreaking initiative in India where survivors study to become lawyers, prosecutors, and journalists fighting the system from within. Filmed with an all-women crew, the campaign captures both their pain and their determination to change their future.

The film’s powerful message — from victim to victor — resonated worldwide, earning a Golden Lion at Cannes and a Black Pencil at the D&AD Impact Awards in New York.
