Summary
Follow these child performers down Kolkata's colorful, chaotic streets. Nats - the traditional street entertainers of India - are 'jacks of all performing trades'. Follow their children down the chaotic streets of Kolkata as they act, sing and dance to pay off their parents' debts. Filmed over a six-year period, this poignant documentary explores a poor family's desperate efforts to support themselves in the midst of a rapidly changing India. We've been doing this for generations Ratan says defensively, explaining that the Nats have existed for over 2000 years. On the colourful streets of Kolkata, his children negotiate chaotic traffic, perform with painted faces on street corners and rattle their trays for rupees.
