Between peace and violence, Tema describes to us the transition phase she is going through; she throws behind her back the abuse of her “kafeel”, the abuse of her ex-husband, and all the racism and discrimination she has to endure on a daily basis. She looks forward to hearing the children laughing and playing, and she shares with us the project she started after gaining her independence.

Sari (Sarktelu) was born in 1995 in Ethiopia. In 2011, she came to Lebanon to visit her sister who was already working in a household. When she entered the country, she had to sign a contract she could not understand or even read as it was written in Arabic. In fact, she had no clue she was coming to work. After only 15 days and against her will, she ended up working in the house of her sister’s employer's daughter as a migrant domestic worker and therefore was trapped into the Kafala system.
