This is a documentary made by a western female freelance photographer, Zana Briski, who lived in the red light district of Calcutta, India, while working on assignment. She befriended the children of the sex workers, and taught them to use 35 mm cameras that she gave them.
It is a very sobering and touching story of the children and world in which they must find a way to survive, and, hopefully, some day, escape from.
There is no sex or nudity, it is subtitled, and well worth the time. The photos these kids have taken are just incredible and in some cases haunting. You will be thinking about this film days after you have seen it.
