Frontline: Children of the Night (1989)
Episode 5, Season 7
One of the best documentaries ever

It's been about 13 years since I've seen this documentary. I'd have to say that I'm pained that I didn't record it when it was on PBS. It follows children living on the streets in California, the bay area I believe. These children are selling their bodies for money to survive, buy drugs, or whatever their addiction may be. The show is raw which makes it more addicting as you watch it. The kids are a real representation of what is like growing up in an unforgiving society. With too much to bare from his past, the main character, Iain Brown, committed suicide. I would love to get my hands on a copy of this movie. It would be nice to see an update also.
