Winner of the 2009 Student Academy Award and 2010 Academy Award Nominee in Live Action Short, Kavi is the story of a boy in India who wants to play cricket and go to school, but instead he is forced to work in a brick kiln as a modern-day slave. Unsatisfied with his fate, Kavi must either accept what he's always been told, or fight for a different life even if he's unsure of the ultimate outcome.
Selected for over 90 festivals world-wide, and awarded nearly 40 wins, Kavi brings to life one boy's story that is inspired by the lives of countless children around the globe.
