US (1971): Documentary/Short
This classic film is one of the most unforgettable affirmations of life that has ever been made. It is about some of the most handicapped and dependent children in society, those with severe cerebral dysfunction. The film demonstrates that these "hopeless cases" can be helped -- that further handicapping can be prevented by proper environmental stimulation and humane therapeutic care. To see these children smile, some for the first time in their lives, is reason enough to view this film time and time again. Produced by Hal Riney and Dick Snider for the Child Psychiatric Nursing Program, UC San Francisco. (UC-Berkeley)
