Children of the World
There are a few places on earth skipped over by the
touch of civilization with both its conveniences and its
darker side which leaves its beneficiaries bereft of human
warmth. They are places dominated by their natural environment
where people choose to live in harmony with the
nature surrounding them rather than to tame it.
The children of these regions are some of the most innocent
yet vulnerable members of humanity. They struggle
with disease, poverty and the cruelty of child labor. Yet,
even amidst their bleak circumstances, these children
hold onto hope and strive to realize their dreams.
This program is an intimate portrait of these children.
We travel to the remotest places in the world such as
Madagascar, the Himalayas, and Tuvalu, in order to tell
their story.
