“In March 2003 doctors at Calcutta’s Institute of Child Health made an astonishing and ground-breaking medical discovery. Quite by accident they had unearthed the only family in the world known to be struck by more than one case of progeria, a rare and incurable genetic disease.
The 80-Year-Old Children describes the race to solve this scientific riddle and ultimately cure this devastating disease. It also offers a moving testament to human dignity under tragic circumstances.”

It is an amazing video. though heart throbbbing and put me into tears…it gives us the message that life is precious and small things in life are not big problems. Because there more than big problems around.
Enjoy your life and SAVE humanity
Thats what I felt after seeing this documentary. The problems we face are not really big ones compared to the problems these children face.
Completely true…i’ve really felt for the kids and what it is to be meaning hope and being strong could be felt watching them smile in such pain..and being able to accept the fact that they know their end…needless to say..our problems are nothing comparable..
I have never come across such a moving story ever before. There are no words to explain the agony of kids. As the doctor said, our health problem is miniscule compared to their even though they never tried to express that and it is an ideal example of spirit of life. We are helpless against the laws of nature….May GOD bless all mankind to lead a quality life
