FFW – Salaam Bombay
This week for Foreign Film Wednesdays we’re ditching the euro-centric approach and hoping over to Asia to show Salaam Bombay, an Indian flick.
It’s a movie about children in the streets of Bombay, left to raise themselves. “There they have an identity, and a measure of hope. Of course, in the best of possible worlds something would be “done” about them, but “Salaam Bombay!” takes place far from such a world, and the movie is about children doing the best they can for themselves.” – Roger Ebert.
Come on over, check out the film, stay for the discussion, recieve the darshan you’ve been looking for. Starts at 9:30!
