"Mother India," filmed during a two-week period in early 2012 with a small production team, is the work of first-time filmmakers David Trotter and Shawn Scheinoha. "India is growing in both population and industry, but few people know that there are over 31 million orphans in this nation," commented Trotter (Executive Producer, Director). "Each of these young lives is much more than a statistic. Every one of them has a name, a face and a story." "The bottom line is that statistics go in one ear and out the other," added Scheinoha (Executive Producer). "People need to hear stories and see the reality of what it looks like for millions of Indian children who are orphaned. We're not out to just tell a tragic story. We're focused on raising awareness and changing lives."

While the production team was shooting the documentary, a spontaneous effort was made to help the two youngest children transition into an orphanage and school operated by the humanitarian organization, Harvest India. Although this was not within the scope of the original documentary, these two young lives soon became a central storyline within the film.

"From childhood, I have had a heart to do what I can do to help people in need, especially kids, and most definitely orphans," said Rebecca St. James. "My hope is that thousands will see this film and join this community of world changers by taking action."
