This is a movie made in India about a young boy who is forced out into the streets of Bombay, where he sells tea, associates with drug dealers, has his money stolen, on and on, good and bad - mostly bad.
It's a depressing story with little to offer on the bright side. The video box said there is no sex, no violence and no objectionable language. Well, two-of-three ain't bad. I would consider the f-word perhaps "objectionable" to a few people. Amazing how out of touch movie producers and critics are. Speaking of critics, this film always gets high marks from them, so you know it's overrated.
However, it is an interesting study of a depressing subject. That's the best I can describe it.
