The opening sequence: Children running through the corrugated metal roofs, the aerial shot of the Dharavi slums, the frenetic chase scene where young Jamal gets locked in a "shit toilet" to meet his idol, Amitabh Bachchan. It is hyper-real. It is dizzying.

Slumdog Millionaire (titled "Quem Quer Ser Um Milionário" in Portuguese) is a "breathless, exciting story" that is both heartbreaking and exhilarating . Directed by Danny Boyle and released widely in early 2009, this film is a cinematic masterpiece that masterfully blends an honest look at the harsh realities of Mumbai's poverty with one of the most compelling love stories in recent cinema .
