Born into Brothels
October 21, 2010 2 comments · report as spam

If you guys want to watch a really good movie which is also related to photography I suggest the 2004 documentary "Born into Brothels".

The movie is basically about the kids in Calcuttas Red Light District.
Zana Briski and Ross Kaufman won a lot of awards with this one including the Academy Award for Best Documentary.

In the movie, Zana Briski, a New York-based photographer, gives each of the children a camera and teaches them to look at the world with new eyes.
