Best Of The Week: Born Into Brothels

What struck me most about this film was the attitude of the children. I had made the assumption that these kids had the idea that they will go no where in life already ingrained into their brains from what they see on a daily basis and how they are treated. I discovered that that idea was far from the truth. Each and every one of those kids saw something inside of themselves and knew they could succeed if they were given the chance to. That inspired me to see more in myself. These children that lived in the ghetto of India never stopped giving up on themselves no matter how hard life was for them.

I was very glad that the filmmakers decided to show us the red light district through the perspective of the children because it gave the viewers a completely different insight of how these families lived.

I value the attitude of the children greatly because they were always laughing, smiling and looking at life on the bright side no matter how hard it became for them. I admire people who can bring out the best in themselves and others when times get hard and after watching this film, these kids inspired me to become more like them and never give up on my dreams no matter how unattainable I may think they are.

  1. Annie, I agree with you 100% on how these kids that were born into the brothels had an amazing attitude throughout the entire film. I also thought that these kids believed in themselves when nobody else did. I think that these children's charismatic attitude is what really drew viewers in. The content of the movie is very sad and depressing, yet these children's attitudes make the movie that much better. I really like and appreciate your comment about how you admire people who can bring out the best in themselves and others around them especially during hard times. I feel that their positive attitude was a major factor that made this movie so great to watch.
