Youth Helping Hands Plans Short Film

Youth Helping Hands, a network of college students and young professionals in Coimbatore working for the welfare of children living in orphanages, is planning to come out with a short film on the trials and tribulations faced by orphaned children. “The story is about the way society treats a child who has come from an orphanage - about the chances that are denied to him or her. It tells the story of the children who have been shunned by their own parents,” says R.Arun, founder of Youth Helping Hands (YHH).

The work on the film has begun and it is being shot at various locations in the city with the help of youth volunteers of YHH. Children with disabilities at orphanages would be part of film too. “Right from good food, care and education, the basic needs of children living in orphanages are not met. The film is aimed at creating awareness on the need to understand the problems of these children and make them better individuals,” Mr.Arun says.

Through the film, Mr.Arun also plans to tell the world, the stigma and discrimination he had to endure having been brought up an orphanage himself. The funds for making the film are being raised by the members of YHH by conducting music programmes and other shows. However, those interested to contribute to the cause can contact Mr.Arun at 9345559815. The film is expected to be released in January next year.
