JHALKI: Tale Of A Tireless Sparrow 108 min

Jhalki, set against the backdrop of bonded child labour, trafficking and lost childhood, takes you through a bedtime folk story which by the time you wake up from, will make you want to be a part of the revolution.

It is a heart-rendering but inspiring story of a street-smart nine-year old girl, Jhalki, in search of her seven-year old brother, Babu, who was suddenly thrown into an inhuman world of child labour with no respite from a terminally gloomy, dark and depressin

Armed with an intimate folk tale of a tireless sparrow, her own ingenious efforts and her charming presence of mind, Jhalki manages her search and eventually free her brother, along with thousands of other enslaved children caught in this insidious practice, affecting over 200 million children worldwide.
