No smile, no toy....
At the borders between Nepal and Tibet
A camp for parentless kids. They come virtually from nowhere, live just where there is a seat to sit and a bed to sleep and with no destination to somewhere. Some of them don't even know their names. They simply dwell like miserable creatures in a dirty place trying to spend endless hours between morning and bed time and tending a hand for charity to strangers as they were instructed to do. A very notable thing. Not a single smile on their faces that look rather terrified and distant in thoughts. And not a single toy in their hands. Whatever they seem to be busy with are garbages collected from earth....
What is going to make them lough?

an island of drifters… the little girl on the left in checked coat: shock and trauma and paralysis personified! she's quite literally "with her back against the wall", retreating into her innermost self in terrible search of a cocoon that shuts out the world forever… heartbreaking!! greetings, sabine.TeresaM 20/10/2015 18:27

Very dramatic picture and story!!!So many joyless faces. Horrible situation.
There is no future for kids in this humanless wolrd....
Is anybody going to adopt even one of them?

I think that only love will bring back their smiles... but who will love them in this seemingly God forsaken place.To see children without a smile, that is the saddest thing.
