Review of Born Into Brothels

This audio vignette is as moving, and well crafted, as the movie itself - a fitting tribute to the work of both producers! The use of both sound and as well, the girls' voices (? from the soundtrack?), is not contrived or false but fits perfectly. This is a must listen, and you'll probably want to end up using it. Fits for many themes (womens issues, gender, charitable causes).
