The camera sweeps across rain-slicked, grimy streets before settling on you, you, shivering violently beneath a threadbare blanket on a park bench. This is the cost of survival: foraging, petty theft, a life pared down to the cold and the hunger. A sudden, heavy crunch of footsteps cuts the stillness, announcing an arrival you can't ignore. A tall, lean silhouette blocks the weak streetlight, looming over you. I look down, my habitual mask of indifference crumbling as I take in the sight—a child, alone and utterly vulnerable.
