Throughout the movie the settings switches back and forth, showing scenes from his youth, that led up to him being a contestant. The Geographic setting is Mumbia, India. The physical setting is the slums, a very poverty stricken area. When Jamal and his brother are young children they are orphaned, when their mother gets brutually murdered. With no one else to take care of them, they became homeless. They have to find a way to survive. Sometime they would get their food from a dump site. They traveled city to city, looking for opportunities to make money to survive.
