Among the arid lands of Rajasthan, surrounded by marble
mines, there is an oasis: A small town called Piplantri, where
women are no longer afraid of giving birth to a girl. Since
2005, every time a girl is born in Piplantri, 111 trees are
planted in her name to celebrate the occasion. Sisters of the
Trees intimately portrays the lives of the women of Piplantri,
the positive changes and also the challenges they face. These
are the daily stories of a project that has already changed
their lives forever.
