I saw this movie last night. It was awesome and very well recommended. The story is about a boy from the slums who wins a game show in India (Who Wants To Be A Millionaire) and everyone is wondering how he did it. Kids in the slums are called "slumdogs".Since he is homeless and has no parents everyone assumes that a slumdog like him is not smart enough to do it without cheating. The movie shows how he draws from events in his life to be able to give the correct answers. The boys who acted in this movie live in actual slums in India where poverty, disease and abuse reigns. Kids there are exploited by handlers who pimp them out to be beggars and even prostitutes. This movie won 8 Oscars and they are very well deserved.
