In a BBC ultra-mini series, reporters go beyond the headlines "to see the 'other side' of places with bad reputations."

Here BBC reporter Benjamin Zand  talks with a few young students about living in a neighborhood with a bad reputation in Karachi, Pakistan. Zand had been told to avoid this neighborhood.

Smart, thoughtful comments from children. Zand has the sensitivity to listen as well as to converse with them as one interested person to another. My disappointment: the tape is much, much too short!

It is lovely and moving.

I hope you like it.
