Smile Pinki

smile pinky
'Smile Pinki' is a tale of a poor Indian village girl who has been left out from the social circle because of her cleft. How her life changes for the good after undergoing a lip surgery forms the crux of the film.

The Film was directed by American Film maker Megan Mylan. It won the Best Short Documentary Award at the Oscars. It is said to have won the hearts of all jury members.

I have not seen this film but can really visualise the theme. Little children with disabilities or imperfections often get left out from their friends circle. Hats off to the team for selecting such a topic.

Here Pinky is holding the Oscar and in her own cute style "shmiling" and "poshing" for photographers.
