Summary: Sony Academy Awards, Gold Award Winner, 2008, Drama Category. Q and A has recently been made into the feature film Slumdog Millionaire, winner of 4 Golden Globes. A street kid wins the Indian TV show "Who Will Win A Billion" - scooping a billion-rupees prize live on Indian TV. Unfortunately, the producers think he must have cheated. Based on the best-selling novel by Indian diplomat Vikas Swarup and from the makers of A Suitable Boy, Fatherland and Handmaids Tale , the production was recorded on location on the streets of Mumbai with an Indian Cast. When Ram Mohammad Thomas, an orphaned, uneducated street kid from Mumbai, wins a billion rupees on a live TV quiz show, he finds himself beaten up and thrown in jail by the programme's producers. During his interrogation he explains, through a series of flashbacks, how he knew the answers to all the show's questions. What he describes about his life is jaw-dropping - "You learn a lot about the world by living in it" he says... His account takes us on an extraordinary adventure through every strata of modern-day India, from orphanages to brothels, gangsters to beggar-masters, into the homes of Bollywood's rich and famous, a well meaning, but ineffective British Missionary, and a seedy Australian diplomat. Using a quiz show format, the drama is punctuated with scenes from the TV studio. 10 questions, 10 answers - and with each answer the stakes get higher
