Born Into Brothels (2004)

This was a great documentary about children of prostitutes who work Calcutta's notorious red light district. Zana Briski, one of the filmakers who helped to change the lives of these children, is a winner of the George Soros' Open Society Institute Fellowship.
Did you know that George Soros - besides being a financial speculator, stock investor, philanthropist, liberal political activist and philosopher - is one of the few native speakers of Esperanto? Amazing and true.
