“This revolutionary series, unprecedented in its scope and documented by some of the finest ethnographic filmmakers of our time, is now available in an update edition through DER. These retransferred films examine four cultures selected for the diversity of their geographic location: starting with the china coast at sea level and moving up to Afghanistan, Kenya, and finally to the mountains of Bolivia. Each location is examined through five themes: rural society, education, rural economy, women, and beliefs. Study guides and supplemental materials are available for download on the DER website. The original 16mm films and outtakes are archived in the human studies film archives at the Smithsonian’s national museum of natural history.”—disc back cover.
Shot in 1972, English subtitles and remastered in 2017.
