Kids with Cameras



One of the things that inspired this blog was watching Born in Brothels by Ross Kauffman and Zana Briski. To call it a documentary alone would ignore its large social implications where it directly tries to change the lives of eight children living in the Red Light district in Calcutta. It is immediately apparent while watching the movie that the goals quickly change from passive exploration to active change. The project is as human as it is direct in its attempts (and failures) to bring children out of harms way.
