When the public spotted Anano stood alone on a busy street, dressed smartly in a dress coat, many stopped to ask her if she was okay.
But, when the child actor changed her appearance to that of a street child, attitudes changed very quickly.
“They were all telling me to go away,” she revealed emotionally.
Watch the footage for yourself below:
However, while little Anano does have a home to go back to, there are millions of children who don’t.
Unicef explain: “Every day, millions of children living in poverty are ignored, pushed aside and deprived of everything they need to thrive.
“It doesn’t need to be this way. Our 2016 State of the World’s Children Report is a call to action for the world to treat its least fortunate children the way it treats its luckier children.”
The video was filmed in Tbilisi, Georgia, where children living and working in the streets are the most disadvantaged and left-behind.
They have no access to education and health services. Often they are unregistered and subject to various forms of violence.
Instability and inappropriate living conditions make these children among the most vulnerable groups of society - with the poorest children twice as likely to die before their fifth birthday than the richest.
“Denying hundreds of millions of children a fair chance in life does more than threaten their futures – by fuelling intergenerational cycles of disadvantage, it imperils the future of their societies,” said UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake.
“We have a choice: Invest in these children now or allow our world to become still more unequal and divided.”
