Synopsis
A chronicle which ventures below the streets of Bucharest, Romania to reveal the lives of the abandoned children who live there. Through the eyes and words of these children, viewers get an uncensored look inside their world and their relentless struggle to survive. For these children, life is about finding food, securing a safe place to sleep, getting drugs and averting abuse.
