Children of the Eclipse

Type Filmfilm_screening
Venue: Hideout
About: In February 2008, hundreds of children and their families converge on Queens Hospital in Jessore. They come from all over Bangladesh, but these children have one thing in common -- they each suffer from disfiguring cleft lips and palates. For the duration of a five day 'camp,' local plastic surgeons operate on the children in an effort to mend their lips and speech habits. But Bangladeshis are not accustomed to hospitals -- the pressure can be too much for the waiting parents.
