Lila's father doesn't work, he is prone to drinking, and he has given up on providing for his family.

Lila's mother is sick and unable to take care of her children.

Lila takes care of the children, the house, and her mother.

Hari works in the fields, taking care of the family with what little he is able to earn.

The family home is deteriorating.... broken and unkempt.

The family's breakfast is limited to milk.... which is all they can afford.
