The first shout, a film about the birth

"The first scream", is a wonderful movie that talks about him birth of human beings, and what we share and what sets us apart at that crucial moment of existence. It shows us how women stop and how babies are received in different cultures around the world.

It is not that he exalts births in the middle of the jungle, but it does excite us and teaches us that the respected birth merges with Nature and its times, its pauses, emotions. Contrast the violence of the births in the gigantic maternity of Hanoi or in Parisian hospital with the intimacy enjoyed by the mothers of the Amazon or in an American cabin.

And it makes us feel that children are not products to take out in a factory that takes parturients, but beings who expect an almost sacred and loving space that embraces them in the world at birth.

Ten different stories of ten human beings who share that first shout with which babies, according to this movie, fill their lungs with air once they reach the world, and they relate the birth of human beings with a poetic beauty and images of enormous aesthetics and anthropological interest.
