Slumdogs? Dogs don't behave like this
The movie Slumdog Millionaire only really illustrates how complex and destructive the western relations of guilt and exploitation are when they interface the vast poverty and chaos of India. The "act her way out" line is the saddest. Her presence in Slumdog could have been enacted by a million other little girls and Bollywood demands dancing skills you can't get in the slums of Bombay. Being in the movie will only make the horror of her life even more disturbing to her. Millions of people in the west went to see this movie and engaged in child slavery and destruction.
