My Sister Laxmi (2012)

My Sister Laxmi is a documentary film following 12 year old Marappa in his daring expedition to find his missing kid sister Laxmi. This film narrates the story of missing children of India. Nearly 11 children go missing in India every hour and at least four of them are never found. Many studies point out that children are often abducted by their own relatives for ransom or child slavery before being made to beg or work as bonded laborers. Many get sexually exploited and sometimes they are even used as child soldiers or combatants in armed conflicts. This film epitomizes the story of missing children through Laxmi.
