This is a rather long film (about 25 minutes) about the trafficking of Nepali children to circuses in India. Thankfully, there are organizations on both the Nepal side and India side who have the children's best interests in heart.
Some of these children are sold by their parents for as little as $11, or in another case "2 goats"....the parents all say they believe their children would be going to a better life. Maybe they actually do "believe that". In reality, these children are beaten and abused in ways one can't imagine.
