cynical travelogue of European tourists in New Guinea, 2 February 2000
8/10
Author: GoatPoda from Syracuse, NY

This cynical ethnographic documentary takes an anthropological tour of New Guinea with a group of European tourists. The relationship between the "civilized" Westerners, "savage" natives, and omniscient camera is very fascinating. Amusing moments of ignorance and lots of shots of some Italian chick's scrawny ass. "They're close enough," she says moments after encouraging a group of children to pose by her so she could have her photo taken.
