Jean-Michel Cousteau and his team journey up the Sepik River, the Amazon of Papua New Guinea, to explore an ancient culture where the crocodile is hunted, feared and revered as master of the spirit world. Along the Sepik, barefooted hunters capture baby crocs, young men endure agonizing coming-of-age ceremonies - their skin is scarred in a two-hour ordeal that transforms two-thirds of their bodies into pebbled "crocodile hide" - and people live in harmony with nature. Joseph Campanella narrates.
