• Missionaries bring "the message of salvation through Jesus Christ" to the Yanomamo Indians of South America. With no editorial comment throughout the film, a dedicated missionary explains the purpose of bringing a Christian ethic to a remote part of the Amazon. She does mention that times are difficult as the Yanomamo consider themselves as "The People," and that foreigners are freaks.
