Film Description

An 11-year-old Indian boy is abandoned by his family and takes to the streets of Bombay, where he enjoys the company of a disparate group of pimps, prostitutes, drug addicts and other street children. Shafiq Syed, the movie's star, had himself slept rough on the streets of Bombay, as had many of the other children who appear in the film.

Documentarist Nair's Oscar-nominated and internationally successful first feature is a vibrant, vivacious, compassionate mosaic which combines articulate social comment with absorbing drama.
