Summaries

They are traditional hunters and farmers, wearing little more than grass skirts. They have no electricity or telvisions, and a very limited idea of the world beyond their tiny island, until now.... It's time to MEET THE NATIVES: USA. Insightful, entertaining and unforgettable, the extraordinary journey of five men from the remote Pacific island of Tanna across the United States will force us to look at ourselves through brand new eyes. Whether it's mud baths and roller coasters in Orange County, CA, sharing a Thanksgiving feast in America's heartland, or touching snow for the first time, the experiences of the Tanna tribesman provide an outsider's view of America that is at once both heartwarming and thought-provoking.
