Born Into Brothels: Calcutta's Red Light Kids

A Movie ReelBorn Into Brothels: Calcutta's Red Light Kids: 6 out of 10.

I'm a big doc fan, so it was with great anticipation that I sat down to watch the 2005 Oscar winner for best documentary. It's a fine piece of work, but far from the best doc I've seen over the past 12 months.

The children are endearing and and clever and you're rooting for them, but it quickly becomes all about Zana Briski. "Capturing the Friedmans" was better.
