After the death of his beloved wife and film-maker partner, Robin Anderson, Bob Connolly read her diaries from the year they had spent filming a vicious tribal struggle in the Highlands of Papua New Guinea. Living in a grass hut with their two-year-old daughter Katherine, and operating their own camera and sound equipment they recorded 60 hours of footage and the result, the feature-length documentary ‘Black Harvest’, won awards all around the world. Using Robins diaries as his inspiration, augmented by 60 letters he wrote in the field, Connolly has written a narative that not only sheds light on film-making, but honestly recounts the pair’s moral dilemmas as they document the unfolding disaster that overwhelms the people they lived among.
