The Children of Leningradsky
An intimate portrait of children living in Moscow train stations, The Children of Leningradsky explores the overwhelming crisis of homeless children in Russia. Sleeping in stairways, garbage containers and underground tunnels, they panhandle or prostitute themselves for money. They sniff glue to curb hunger and to escape from the violent world around them. Yet many of them consider life on the streets a better alternative to what they experienced at home.
