Nine-year-old Rami Shahoo is a Syrian refugee who has lived in Iraqi Kurdistan for the past two years. Every day he takes to the streets with his shoe polishing kit and stays out till at least 9pm, scouring the streets for people whose shoes he can clean. He can't go to school because he needs to work in order to help his family pay their rent and buy food.
