Butterfly Dreams is based on the real stories of many children who are working in factories in India, but have a desire to go to school. The Child Labor Law in India prohibits the employment of children below the age of 14 in any factory. But the reality is different. Child labor in India is practiced in almost all places like restaurants, matches and fireworks industries, glass and bangles factories, the diamond industries, and building and construction industries.
