Description
In the USA, a law has been passed forcing anthropologists, archaeologists and museums to return ethnic artifacts and ancestral remains to the American Indian communities. The film explores how scientists are responding to the loss of their specimens: their world is collapsing, and they are being forced to question the value of what they do. For the infant science of palaeopathology, it means a subject snuffed out before it can prove its worth.

The most widely read, and best known anthropologist is probably Margaret Mead, an American who went study adolescence in the South Sea-Islands at the age of 23. Although her fieldwork has been criticised, she was nevertheless one of the foremost fieldworkers of her day. In America, Bali and New Guinea she examined child development, sex and temperament to see what role society has in making people what they are. Adolescence was a time of emotional stress and personal conflict in America and Europe. Mead claimed that in Samoa, adolescence was in many ways the most enjoyable and happy time of life.
