In a dimly lit medieval market, four young women, all 20 years old, stand bound, their tall and skinny forms clad only in the cool night air. Their black long hair cascades down, a stark contrast against the dusty ground. Their naked bodies, adorned with nothing but chains, are visible to all. A crowd of onlookers murmurs in the background, eyes fixed on the auctioneer who appraises them with a cold gaze. The girls, fear etched onto their faces, lock eyes with the viewer, a silent plea echoing through the silence.
