Filmmaker Thomas Balmes offers an adorable glimpse at the first phase of life in this film following four newborn babies through their first year of life. Ponijao, Bayar, Mari, and Hattie were born in Namibia, Mongolia, Japan, and California, respectively. By capturing their earliest stage of development on camera, Balmes reveals just how much we all have in common, despite being born to different parents and raised in different cultures. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    I had reservations about this when I heard that there is no dialogue, but this documentary is awesome! I particularly liked the Bayar and Ponijao portions of the movie.

    This was a truly charming film! It makes you aware of the fact that mothers are mothers no matter where they live on this planet and no matter how different the daily care. If you need lots of action in a film, this is not for you, but if you can go along with the leisurely pace -- and love babies -- I think you'll love it as much as I did.
