Abstract
The dynamics of village life in Papua New Guinea are examined, particularly the clash between traditional custom and western values. The film details the experience of John Waiko the first Papua New Guinean to reach the status of Professor. After receiving his doctorate from the Australian National University he travelled back to his village; Tabara, on the Gira River to celebrate the achievement with his own people. His academic supervisor at ANU Hank Nelson was invited along as a guest of honour.
