A child alone at the funfair, hugging his knees

AiBi · Amici dei Bambini · 2013 · Leagas Delaney

In the shoes of an abandoned child.

AiBi, Amici dei Bambini, fights for every child’s right to be someone’s son or daughter. There are 168 million abandoned children in the world: a number too big to feel. So the film doesn’t tell it. It makes you feel it.

The film. Directed by Federico Brugia. A crowded funfair, and a child who is suddenly alone. A feeling we’ve all had at least once as children — losing our parents in the crowd — to put us, for thirty seconds, in the shoes of one of those 168 million.
