Dramatically focuses on Haiti's forgotten children and their struggles to survive and educate themselves--in spite of their bondage through the docudrama of a young girl working as a servant to the daughter of a rich family who live among the Haitian elite. Daily domestic chores while the daughter is showered with love and presents, she carries the daughter's books to school gazing through the metal grill to a world she is excluded.
