Headline Nurse training in the WHO South-East Asia region 
Description "It happened in our village", a 27-minute documentary film, was produced by the Government of India Films Division with the assistance of WHO.



The film was produced by Ezra Mir, Chief Producer of the Government Film Unit and directed by Mohan Wadhwani. The film tells the story of village tensions, suspicions and mistrust when the illiterate dai (the indigenous midwife of India) allows her daughter to go away for a two-year course of training as an auxiliary nurse midwife while she herself takes a short Government of India/WHO dai training course which will fit her to undertake any normal delivery with safety to mother and child and teach her when medical aid should be called in. 
At the King Georges Hospital at Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, Sushamma begins the second part of her two-year training : midwifery. 



"She is learning all about how a baby is born and what she can do to make the delivery safe for mother and baby". 



In classrooms attached to the Hospital the auxiliary nurse midwife students work long and hard. Then comes practical work in the maternity wards. 



"Before and after work cleanliness is most important - The mothers have to be taught to take all the precautions - and the students must set an example - "
