Asmat: Cannibal Craftsmen of New Guinea
Narrated by David Attenborough
The Asmat are known for two things - the remarkable quality of their woodcarvings and the notoriety linked to the death of Michael Rockefeller Jr, anthropologist son of the famous American family. His disappearance on a field trip there remains an unsolved mystery-did he drown or was he killed and subsequently eaten by the Asmat?
