We join Frans in (2010) in the shantytown Nagwa, Varanasi, India he's fighting for the caste less residents (Dalits) for over 30 years. Frans lives in very poor circumstances amongst them with limited resources; through his determination, humor and dedication he has accomplished a lot. He's given the Dalits homes, schooling, medical care and a voice. But still he's fighting for their recognition. Sixty-five years after Indian independence,research and reports show the Dalits constitute the largest number of people categorized as victims of discrimination and exploitation in any single nation one earth.
