Zana Briski’s project of giving cameras to children in India was part of an exhibition of children’s photography at Lincoln Center in New York City. “Outside the Frame,” organized by PixelPress and presented in conjunction with the Human Rights Watch International Film Festival included her project, “The Kids of Sonagachi: Photographs by the Children of Calcutta’s Red Light District.” Zana and Ross Kauffman have filmed a one-hour documentary, “Brothel Kids,” which won the audience award at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival, plus awards from film festivals in Cleveland, Nashville, Bermuda, Durango and the Amnesty International Film Festival. Zana has set up a Kids With Cameras non-profit involving Israeli, Palestinian and Haitian children.
