Details Limited Release: Jan 28, 2005; Rated: R; Length: 85 Minutes; Genre: Documentary; Distributor: THINKFilm

It documents the lives of eight boys and girls in Calcutta who were born to prostitutes and have been raised with the expectation they'll continue in that soul-killing trade. Unfortunately, the film angelicizes the children more than it illuminates them.
