Surjo is a 8-year-old boy from the slums who lives with his mother. He earns a living by collecting scraps and selling them. One morning, he tells his mother that he wants to go to school instead of scavenging. To his surprise, his mother tears off his lovely book and shatters his dream. As much as she wants to send him to school, she feels helpless that she couldn’t support him because of poverty. One day, Surio returns home as usual after scavenging. His dream finally comes true.
