In the Nima slums, as evening falls, Ramatu and her brother Sadam find respite lying on the cool floor beneath a protective mosquito net.
In this sweltering environment, where the rooms become unbearably hot, they have adopted the habit of sleeping outdoors to avoid the risk of mosquito bites that often lead to malaria. This scene is a common occurrence in Nima, where many residents are compelled to seek solace outside due to the oppressive heat.
Ramatu and Sadam were born and raised in this challenging environment and now navigate life without their parents. Ramatu, a resilient businesswoman, diligently ventures to the market early each morning, returning late in the evening. Despite the demands of her daily routine, she assumes the responsibility of caring for her brother, ensuring his well-being whenever she arrives home.
