A tale of greed, aspiration, and broken dreams. Gemma Atwal's dynamic epic follows four-year-old Budhia, rescued from poverty by Biranchi Das, a judo coach who runs an orphanage for slum children in the eastern Indian state of Orissa. When Budhia displays an uncommon talent for long distance running, Biranchi nurtures his gift, heralding him as a folk hero for the impoverished masses, and maybe even for India itself. But after golden child Budhia breaks down during a world-record 65 kilometer run at the age of four, public opinion begins to turn against the guru and his disciple, and soon the two are swept up in a maelstrom of media controversy and political scandal. Following Budhia's roller-coaster journey over five years, Marathon Boy is a Dickensian tale of greed, corruption, and broken dreams set between the heart-pounding world of marathon running, the poverty-stricken slums and the political intrigue of a modernizing India. 580 Verzio Film Festival Submission 655 4 Documentary films 260 United Kingdom : |bOne Horse Town Productions, |c2010. 041 enghinori |jeng 952 |00 |10 |40 |50 |70 |8FL |992678FL |bFL |d2016-11-25 |l0 |r2016-11-25 |w2016-11-25 |yDVD-ROM 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6FL_RECORD_2656_000000000000000 |70 |8FL |9149095FL |bFL |d2019-05-06 |l0 |oFL Record 2656 |pHU_OSA_00004267.mp4 |r2021-11-04 |w2019-05-06 |yDIGIFILM |zAccess Copy, MP4 format |cAudio Visual 920 01 yozEE7er 966 True |bHU_OSA_00004267 |cDigitally Anywhere / With Registration
