A 10 de Dezembro de 1948 a Assembleia Geral das Nações Unidas adoptou e proclamou solenemente a Declaração Universal dos Direitos Humanos. Infelizmente os governos dos Estados que a assinaram não a cumprem na sua integralidade pelo que se pode dizer que os direitos humanos ainda são uma utopia por que vale lutar
Filme da animação que fala dos 30 artigos da Declaração Universal dos Direitos Humanos.
