Redlight to Limelight follows a group of young children who are passionately weaving stories with mothers and sisters through their native video production unit called CAM ON to cultivate a meaningful change in the lives of a special community of sex workers in the brothel of Kalighat, Kolkata. Keeping aside the ghosts of their grimy reality and who they were, women and children get immersed into an incredible joy of storytelling with a burning desire to turn the brothel into a better place. Woven around the experiences of mothers and sisters, CAM ON embarks on making a new short fiction Nupur, which is often entwined between memories and actuality, takes them through a catharsis when the community premieres the film for a public screening - its voices are heard. With joy and the power of storytelling, artful voices make the grimy universe a liberating space of self-assertion.
