something to look forward to

What a truly heartwarming idea.

Whether you are interested in them or not, babies are the great equalizer. No matter where you live or how, the experience of having children really levels the playing field. I love the way this film captures that magic and gives us a cross cultural glimpse of how similar we all are as human beings. The trailer alone speaks volumes about culture (different and universal simultaneously) and the natural world vs. modern times. This film has the same kind of thought provoking imagery as the 1992 materpiece Baraka.

I can't wait to see this documentary, mostly for the footage of Nambia and Mongolia. That scene with the little mongolian baby crawling across the field, mountains in the distance, makes me so unbelievably happy! And the babies in Nambia playing with rocks in the dirt... Perfection.
