Mike Carroll was one of the first photographers to travel to Romania after the fall of the communist regime in 1989. When he arrived, he walked into one of the most horrific scenes of the 20th Century. His incredible photographs and heart wrenching stories of the pediatric AIDS epidemic in Romania ran in the "Boston Globe" and "New York Times" and opened the eyes of the western world to the plight of the Romanian children. What followed was a twenty-year odyssey for Mike and his colleagues as they fought to bring help to a population of children in need, in a country that they hardly knew.
HAND HELD is the new documentary film produced and directed by two-time Academy Award ®-nominated filmmaker Don Hahn. Hahn has been shooting in Boston, Bucharest, and Bistritsa, for nearly two years on this extraordinary motion picture about one guy with a camera, a band of New Englanders, a hundred sixty thousand orphans, and the unforgettable story of how they changed each other's lives forever.
Coming in 2010

@KissLuigi94 Te simti bine in tara aia libera de comunism,cu salarii taiate cu 25%? Am plecat acum 7 ani din România ca un câine badjocorit şi umilit de patroni şi de un stat corupt de la periferia Europei.
