Overview
This film looks at Nauru in 1962 when it had the highest per-capita income in the world but when the depletion of the country's phosphate resources was already on the horizon meaning the only industry they had, and the only source of foreign investment, was coming to an end. Having become accustomed to the ways of the modern, industrialized world but with no way of supporting themselves how will the Nauruans maintain their lifestyle?
