Show detail Hide detail

This is a follow-up to CHANGING GROUND, the documentary shown on THE NATURE OF THINGS on 28 February 2001. On that program five Stólo Nation members from the Fraser River Valley travelled across the Pacific to spend several weeks among the Maisin people of Papua New Guinea in the summer of 2000. The encounter set off reverberations in both communities - each recognizing in the other powerful reflections of their past and future. This program shows the return visit in the summer of 2001, when the Stólo hosted the Maisin in Canada. In YEARS FROM HERE, the Maisin see in the Stólo a people who have survived great losses, and emerged with a wisdom and vision they now share with other communities worldwide. YEARS FROM HERE examines how a society strives to meet the needs of the present without destroying the past and jeopardizing the future. In the documentary, traditional communities are revealed to have a moral, political and spiritual sophistication that is in short supply and high demand in Western society. For the Stólo, the Maisin's struggle to maintain their way of life in the face of powerful outside forces is a reminder of their own troubled history. Indigenous societies, after decades of poverty, poor health, dispossession, are experiencing a rebirth - marked by the renewal and strengthening of a deep spiritual connection to the environment. This vision and the belief that economic development can happen in ways that serve the overall good of a community inspires the Maisin's visit to the land of the Stólo. <1h>
