This animated short follows an unwanted baby who is passed from house to house until he is taken in and cared for by two homeless men. The film is the Canadian contribution to an hour-long feature film celebrating UNESCO's Year of the Child (1979). It illustrates one of the ten principles of the Declaration of Children's Rights: every child is entitled to a name and a nationality. The film took home an Oscar® for Best Animated Short Film.

    For over ten years, I have been using this wonderful film in my adult ESL classes in a variety of language skill and language learning contexts. I've used Norman McLaren's Neighbours too. :-)
