2006/07 Season
BORN INTO BROTHELS
USA/Canada 2004 (No Cert) Ipswich Film Theatre -
30 October 2006
- 7.30pm
Disturbing, compelling and inspiring, this is a personal account by two documentary filmmakers of their experiences in the steamy back streets of Sonagchi, India. Exposing the abject poverty which festers there, the film follows the life changing journey of some prostitutes' children as they learn to express themselves through the art of photography.
AUDIENCE COMMENTS:
Wonderful. What an excellent way to reach and help the children. Thank you for choosing it;
Thank you for the opportunity to see such a disturbing, revealing film but the irrepressible spirit of the children really shone;
Amazing. A revelation. Such a mixture of hope and despair, but in even in such conditions, there is colour and life;
Totally inspirational. What an amazing woman;
An enlightening journey but so many had no chance.
