Rice, the staple food, is shown being cultivated and threshed by semi-nude native women. The following sequence, in the village market square, shows the customs of trade among the natives. "A short sequence deals with pottery mak- ing. The next sequence, somewhat more lengthy than those preceding, deals with the Balinese religious ceremonies which seem so strange to the Western eye: the semi-nude girls bring offerings, a street procession carries weird-looking figures, and a witch-dance, ac- companied by a native gong orchestra, con- cludes the ceremonies. The film ends with emphasis upon the tranquility of life on the Island of Bali. "A typical travelogue, unusual only be- cause many scenes of partially nude native girls and women are included. Lack of depth limits educational value. Film probably would be o.k. for adults but semi-nudity of native women makes school value questionable."
