The documentary film is about the
Christian children’s aid organisation ‚Nuestros
Pequeños Hermanos’, Spanish for ‚Our Little
Brothers and Sisters’ in Latin America.
The organisation is celebrating its sixtieth
anniversary this year. The film shows four of
the eleven children’s villages. The oldest one
in Mexico, two in Haiti and a younger one in
Peru. The children who live in the villages are
all either orphaned, or have been mistreated or
abandoned by their parents. |

Often the family was simply
unable to look after them.
The film tells about a Mexican woman, a Haitian
boy and a Peruvian teenager, who were or still
are raised in one of the children’s villages.
They all had one thing in common: they had a
difficult childhood, full of sad experiences,
losses and hardships. Then suddenly, at one
point in their life, their fates have taken a
turn for the better. This has been made possible
by ‚Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos’. |
