Born Into Brothels

Don’t you sometimes just wish that people could look at their situation, say “I’m better than this”, and change their lives? Why can’t they? Why don’t they? I’m not saying that everyone should pull themselves up by their bootstraps, most of them simply can’t. But, I can see why some people have that attitude. Even with a well done documentary like this, it’s impossible to really put yourself in the shoes of people who’s lives are so different from your own. Anyway, this movie poses another dilemma – if you do a well-received documentary about kids, when do you just call it “done”, and stop following-up with them? Should you?
