5 | It was produced in coordination with UNICEF in support of UNICEF's declaration of the rights of the child. In the short, a baby is left on various doorstops in a prosperous neighborhood. A businessman leaves the baby on the next doorstop because he is too busy. An elderly couple plops the baby down on the next doorstop because their dog is jealous. A woman leaves the baby on the next doorstop because her husband/boyfriend won't have it. Finally the baby is abandoned outside in a stroller, which careens down a hill to the dump--where the baby is taken in by a pair of homeless men. |
