Creator: Counterpoint Films

Complete Record: Demonstrates essential clinical features of infantile marasmus in two children, one 13 months old and one almost four years old. Shows results which can be obtained by exposing these children to human stimulation, and points out the degree of recovery which can be achieved in a very short time in children who appear to be profoundly disturbed. Emphasizes that these results can be duplicated in any general hospital or well-run child-care facility.
