Babies—a
French documentary—defines itself as the reality of the word ‘lovable’. It’s a
not-to-be-missed film that tells its story so well that one does not realize
there is no narration throughout the film. No interpretation, no judgment, no
comparisons. I came away from this documentary feeling good about the world and
its chances for survival. Director Thomas Balmès
caught the beauty of the many ways that we survive on this planet and the
reality that it’s all okay. Well done. Thank you.

Storyline
The story follows the
lives of four babies through their first year of life. Two babies are from more
civilized countries and two are from less civilized countries. The marvel of human
life in its first year is thoroughly explored.
