Synopsis

A group of homeless children lives in a basement, struggling to survive on the streets. They beg for alms, steal, and use drugs. One child reflects on their life: “I left home and started living on the street. I have friends. We live together, steal, sniff glue, drink vodka.” For several months, filmmakers documented their daily activities and interactions. The film presents an unfiltered view of their experiences and the challenges they face.
