A film by Pierre Gaisseau
Pierre Gaisseau (remembered for "The Sky Above, the Mud Below" which won him an Academy Award) parachuted with his camera into a previously unexplored region of New Guinea jungle. The aim of Gaisseau's drop was to study what would happen when primitive tribesmen were subjected to instant 'civilisation.'
Taking with them many artefacts of Western culture, Gaisseau and his 18-year-old son Nicholas started filming the action from the moment they left the plane.

Anthony Wedgwood Benn, MP v William Rees-Mogg on the right of groups or individuals to challenge the law.
'Millions of people in Britain... will in their hearts respect men who would rather go to jail than betray their fellow workers and the principles they hold.' (Wedgwood Benn 22.7.72)
'Once there is widespread rejection of the conventions of constitutional democracy there will be a competition in force which in the end will either be met by greater force or will destroy society.' (The Times 28.7.72)
