Stolen Childhoods

STOLEN CHILDHOODS, stories of children across the world for whom life is nothing but work. An examination of global child labor, narrated by Meryl Streep.

STOLEN CHILDHOODS was made over seven years time, filming children laboring like slaves in eight countries across the globe. These kids understand two things: one, that unlike other children, their childhoods dont count; and two, that hard work is all they will ever know.
Its a slow death, says Wangari Maathai, 2004s Nobel Peace Prize winner. Senator Tom Harkin sees child laborers as a breeding ground for future terrorists.
The message of STOLEN CHILDHOODS is very timely. Helping these children is an opportunity for us to help ourselves. The film asks us all to keep the promises the world community has already made; to provide universal education for all children, and to act against the poverty, profiteering and prejudice that produces this shameful waste of childrens lives.
When you hear these kids speak for themselves, it is impossible not to listen and not to act.
Len Morris, Director
