Street Children Of Mumbai

This promotional and educational film commissioned by the Church of North India, tells the story of Mrs Christdoss and her successful pavement school project in Mumbai.  Shot on 16mm film on location in Mumbai with post production at Prime Focus India.

The film was also used by Methodist Church Britain as part of their Peacebuilders Campaign screening at International Conferences in Delhi, Hyderabad and Calcutta.  It was also used as part of their Peacebuilders educational package distributed to all Methodist Schools thoughout Britain.

This film is a rare occurance of being shot on 16mm film on location in Mumbai.  Due to Sara Proudfoot Clinch’s connections in Mumbai and her fantastic negotiation skills, she was able to organise favourable deals to make this happen.  Although it has to be said that shooting in India on film is much more cost effective than the UK.

This film had Press Screening Premieres in Mumbai and BAFTA London.
