Salaam Bombay!
(1988)|
This first fiction film from Mira Nair (director of Monsoon Wedding) won her the new director's award at Cannes in 1988. The wrenching story concerns a 10-year-old boy who's tossed out onto the streets of Bombay to find work. As he tries to earn enough money to return home, he finds it's hard enough just trying to stay alive in this lawless world. Nair hired many Bombay street kids for the film, and some scenes are filmed in an actual brothel.
