We are one

A rhythmic montage-in-motion of children around the world - playing, running, dancing, crying, laughing, eating - with touching contrasts and funny similarities. The message is universal love and hope: modern skills give mankind the chance to make this one world.
Based on the NHK production by Akira Takasaka and Kuniji Kodama.
