Coexistence
Raju, a 8 year old boy, lives in one of the worst chronic drought areas of south India.
Needless to say that poverty and migrated father pushed him into child labour.
Everyday, he has to follow a herd of cows, though he is not the shepherd.
His duty is to collect cow dung, secretly.
His sister and mother help him at home.
For survival, his entire family depends on undigested jowar grains, found in the cow dung, everyday.
