In Asia and in the Middle East, in the privacy of many family homes and hidden from the eyes of the law, live over 15 million housekeepers who are victims of modern slavery. Exploited at will, abused and sometimes raped, these invisible women are the sacrificed workers of the global economy. States, institutions and middlemen...are not interested in change, despite a smouldering spirit of revolt.
Also available in French: Petites bonnes Asiatiques, invisibles esclaves modernes
