This documentary, filmed at Christmas 1973, "searches" for the causes of malnutrition in the slums, in the unemployed population, in the living conditions that someone defined as "extreme misery." This approach, novel for the time, produced controversies since the trend then was to define child malnutrition solely as a medical and health problem. However, the inquisitorial camera discovered the malnourished child under the bridge, in the poor neighborhoods... in the arms of the marginalized woman. And the documentary tells us something else: as long as these living conditions persist... the cry of the malnourished child will persist.
