Description:Sequel to Joe Leahy's Neighbors, this film is a real-life drama about two ambitious men vying for power, two cultures racing towards head-on collision, and a dream that turns sour. Coffee picking buckets, the work ethic, and the promise of wealth are quickly abandoned for spears, bows and arrows, guns, and chanting as inter-tribal warfare erupts on the eve of the crop harvest. English subtitles when Tok Pisin is spoken.
