Talkback

Submit your thoughts on THE DEVIL'S MINER.

We invite you to respond to the questions below or add your comments. Selected submissions will be posted on our Talkback page, so check back regularly and join the discussion.
  • Raised without a father and living in extreme poverty, Basilio and Bernardino assume many adult responsibilities. What is a child’s responsibility to his or her family? At what age is it acceptable to ask a child to contribute financially? Why?

  • Now that filming of THE DEVIL’S MINER is complete, filmmakers Kief Davidson Richard Ladkani are dedicated to helping the Vargas family and other Bolivian child laborers. Do you think that they have stepped over a line of objectivity as filmmakers, or are just doing the right thing?

  • What do you think the government’s role is when it comes to a child’s education, especially when a family can’t make ends meet?
