Starting with a title card that tells little American kids that, yes, Chinese kids are "real" and "human", this film gives us a bit of a tour of the Chinese underclass, and ends with a rah-rah of how Americans are coming in to save the day and teach the kids Christianity. It's not ALL that, but that's the impression I got. Anyways, great shots of China during this time (the 30s?)
