BBC Africa Eye's Nancy Kacungira revisits three young women, who left their homes in Uganda to find jobs as domestic workers across the border in Kenya.

Three years ago, BBC Africa Eye's Nancy Kacungira reported on the plight of three young women, Mercy, Scovia and Esther who left their homes in Uganda to find jobs as domestic workers across the border in Kenya. The film chronicled their hard lives and illustrated how being employed as a domestic worker can sometimes lead to mistreatment and even abuse. Now Nancy is back and catching up with the three young women to find out how their lives have changed and whether their hopes and dreams became reality.
