What an amazing and eye-opening journey through the starkly constrasting cultural norms of newborn/infant care around the world. Without one bit of scripted dialogue, this film easily makes its point and guides the viewer seamlessly through the average parental patterns of Japan, Africa, Mongolia, and America. It is a brief study in sociology and cultural values of four different corners of the globe. This film is also entertaining. There are many places that the camera catches the infant's learning process and the viewer can actually see enlightenment through the facial expressions of the child. I highly recommend it to those interested in cultural values, sociology, or child rearing practices from around the world.
