  You see, for Iqbal I was not invisible. I existed, and he made me free. This is the story of Iqbal Masih - as told through the voice of Fatima, a young Pakistani girl whose life is changed by Iqbal's courage and spirit. Iqbal is a child slave, sold to work in a carpet factory. But he refuses to act like a slave and the charismatic boy offers hope to the children.

Iqbal escapes, eventually contacts a human rights group, and returns to the factory to free his friends...
