Plot

Three documentaries; the first, set in New Guinea, about the stunningly handsome birds of paradise and those marvellous architects the bower birds. The second, and best of the three, is from Attenborough's youth and involves a successful anthropological trip into the New Guinea mountains to make first contact with some of the isolated hills people living there. In the third our hero tracks down the origin of a beautiful statuette he bought at auction and takes us to Easter Island with its fabulous giant statues.
