Seeds of Destiny

This documentary portrays the plight of the millions of children who were left at the end of World War II without food, clothing or shelter. Under the sponsorship of the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration, a team of Signal Corps cameramen was sent to 14 countries to film children in bombed-out cities, refugee camps and other locations. This film was responsible for raising large amounts of money for war relief and won the Academy Award for the best documentary short subject of 1946.
