Summary:

Made as part of the celebrations for International Children's Day, the film explores the way in which children experience and are influenced by the world around them. [WARNING: contains scenes of dead and injured children, and disturbing footage of violence.]. Footage includes children interacting in their day-to-day lives, experiencing a visit to the dentist, to the hairdresser, first swimming lessons, and participating in a fashion show. Also includes comparative footage of children suffering in extreme circumstances such as during wars, and how they are influenced by the "moral radiation" of their social and cultural environment. The film also addresses the Thalidomide scandal that occurred in the GDR in the early 1960s.
