Child Undernourishment

Through images showing the precarious conditions in which the poorest families in the country live, and the testimonies of the mothers themselves, a denunciation of child malnutrition in Chile is made. It also shows a hospital ward and babies in a state of extreme malnutrition, and images of a funeral, in which the coffin is evidently that of a child. The narration provides facts and figures that reinforce the magnitude of the problem.
