Banned by the Argentinian government for nearly thirty years, this film is a searing indictment of a fascist regime running roughshod over its most vulnerable citizens--its children. Focusing on the bleak life of Polin, a boy abandoned by his family and sent to live in a state run orphanage, it is also a moving portrait of the human spirit imprisoned by the chains of well intentioned fools.
