When Pigeons Fly is the original title of this heartfelt documentary by Chris Mercer, that takes you inside the lives of children in street situations. This film shows you firsthand the harsh realities of life on the streets in the words and through the eyes of the children that have lived it. The film concludes by profiling an organisation that supports some of these children and how they have been able to change their lives for the better.

This is the documentary that inspired Chris Mercer’s book Niños en la calle.
