Children of Mandala is a raw and poignant look at the resilience of kids in a Mumbai slum. It captures these economically displaced children as they navigate their harsh realities, seeking education amidst government neglect. The pacing feels almost lyrical, interspersed with everyday moments that bring their struggles and hopes into sharp focus. The documentary doesn't shy away from the starkness of their environment, but there's a sense of community and determination that shines through. The performances, if you can call them that, are genuine; the kids are just being themselves, which makes it all the more moving. It's not polished, and that’s what sets it apart—the authenticity is palpable.
