content: Edited film made by Martin Moyer for educational use describes the geographical location of the Fiji Archipelago and illustrates the kind of islands that make up the group. Film introduces the Fijian people who live by the sea under social and economic conditions not greatly different from that of their forefathers. They are also shown as having adapted themselves to their environs and, away from the few cities, how they still tend to cling to their ancient communal way of life. Collaborator is R.A. Derrick, Geographer-Historian and Director of Fiji Museum.
