Afshan, a bright young girl who comes from a family of six daughters, is one of her great success stories.

Another girl, Zarina, comes from similar circumstances but has had to fight to stay in school and resist her family's plan to marry her off at the age of 14. The film follows Shabeena at work.

And, over the course of a year, we see how Afshan and Zarina, as well as Shabeena herself, each strive to realise their dreams.
