Description: Extends a plea to preserve the wilderness in our lives and in our minds, and to preserve the identity of people who many feel are threatened with cultural genocide.

Complete Record: Studies the contrasts in developing Alaska, focusing on herds of earth-moving machines and herds of buffalo, urban complexes and Eskimo villages. Portrays the charm of Alaska's wilderness character, and the feeling its residents have that they would like to preserve that character. Poses the question, "To what extent can a wilderness be civilized without being destroyed?"
