A series of outstanding BBC television programmes which have won awards at Festivals and Competitions in Britain and abroad. This programme won the Robert Flaherty Award from the British Film Academy in 1969.

"Each child is not only potentially educable but has in himself something which is as whole and sound as that something in me or you"

A film about the Camphill School for mentally handicapped children in Aberdeen. The Camphill movement started in 1939, influenced by the Austrian social philosopher Rudolf Steiner. Striking features of the school are the way in which some of the children can positively help the others in spite of their handicaps, and the atmosphere of tolerance and affection which prevails.
