Smile Pinki - Where Are They Now?

Born with cleft lips in one of the poorest regions of rural India, five-year-old Pinki and 11-year-old Ghutaru are ostracized and ridiculed for their condition. While surgery to correct the defect is routine in the U.S., it is a distant dream for them and their families - until they meet Pankaj, a social worker for the G.S. Memorial Plastic Surgery Hospital, who travels from village to village to find children with cleft lips and palates. Directed by Megan Mylan, the uplifting Oscar®-winning documentary SMILE PINKI follows its two wide-eyed protagonists on a journey from isolation to acceptance.
