Description
This documentary is an in-depth exploration of the topic of working children of Egypt, as well as a forum that encourages public understanding of the issues which surround this highly complex issue.
In particular, the film tries to balance the negative baggage that is generally associated with child-labour and finds positive alternatives which help the working children of Egypt to develop and grow for the future.
The film is also unique in that it explores the complex psychology that a developing country, like Egypt, has with its difficulty in admitting its own social problems and fears of exposing them to an international audience, who historically has misunderstood and misrepresented them.
The film caused a huge stir in Egypt when it was released.
