Filmed in Indonesia, Italy and the U.S. this captivating
film has won numerous awards for its excellence and helped focus attention and
muchneeded support on Maternal and Child survival and its correlation with
violence in childbirth. Filming the work of Ibu Robin Lim and the people who
protect thesmallest citizens of Earth, is an ongoing passion for Filmmaker
Déjà Bernhardt. She has mastered capturing on camera tender moments of
childbirth and human bonding, as they unfold in our planet's most extreme
locations of environmental and political disaster. As Bernhardt takes us from
beautiful Bali, where the economy has been destroyed by terrorist bombings, to
post Tsunami Aceh, she highlights the efforts of one remarkable woman who has
been recognized globally for illuminating the difference one person can make.
