The Slumdog Children of Mumbai
Channel Four Dispatches: Thursday 21 January 9pm
The Slumdog Children of Mumbai tells the moving stories of Deepa, Salaam, and twins Hussan & Hussein. Four children caught up in the maelstrom of life on the streets and in the slums of Mumbai. Filmed over three months, throughout the monsoon, by award-winning film-maker Nick Read, we witness the bravery, resourcefulness and extraordinary resilience of these children, as they grow up long before they should.
