This public affairs program hosted by Philip Deane examines the country of Jordan under King Hussein. Footage supplied by filmmaker Michael Jacot and narrative by Bruce Rogers alternate with Deane's commentary and maps of the Middle East to demonstrate the problems and advantages of Jordan's central location between Arab and Israeli states. In interview footage, Hussein describes the problems he faces in trying to modernize Jordan and achieve cooperation between Arabs and Jews. Noteworthy footage includes: shots of the Arab Legion in training; aerial footage of the Jordan Valley; Arabs on the streets of Jordan; and the desert Bedouins, who resist assimilation into Jordan's mainstream society. <30mn>
