- She lives in a “hotel” with many other girls doing the same thing. Most are underage.
- Eka is very beautiful, the men like her. It is time for the reality of her “job” to take on a new form. She no long will serve in the front of the bar, but is now expected to serve the men in the bedroom in the back.
- Sometimes up to 15 men per day. She makes good money for her boss, but Eka has a debt to pay for her travel and living expenses, so she must continue to work.
- “Work” is no longer enough for her boss, she must now recruit. She calls on her cousin and friends back home that she knows are beautiful and convinces them to come. If they don’t, she pays the price through beatings.
- She has come to rely on cigarettes, drugs and alcohol to relieve her stress and pain
