This is the original film we made of the Porgera people in PNG before mineable gold was discovered. They show us their courting ceremony, a sing sing, marriage and bride price, wealth, debt and payback, salt, stone axes, trade, village court and prison system, what happens to wages from jobs with the mining exploration team, and talk about their hopes of wealth in the future.
