Children of Leningradsky

(Dzieci z Leningradzkiego)

Sleeping in stairways, garbage containers and underground tunnels, the thousands of homeless children living in Moscow's train stations panhandle or prostitute themselves for money and sniff glue to curb hunger and escape from the violent world around them. Still, many of them consider life on the streets preferable to what they experienced at home.
