In the early 1930s, Australian Michael Leahy discovered in the unexplored New Guinea highlands an intact civilization untainted by modern society. Fifty years later, the authors made a documentary film about Leahy's four years living their culture. Now, they write a story capturing all the drama of the historic encounter.
