- A cinematographic journey to “the country of the last cannibals” in the light of post-colonial studies. The article is an attempt to analyse “Cannibal Tours”, a document by D. O’Rourke, an Australian director, filmed from a postcolonial perspective. Papua New Guinea, an island relatively isolated from the rest of the world, has interested researchers since the beginning of cultural anthropology. At the turn of the 1980s and 1990s, when charter flights were first operated, a group of people looking for exoticism joined wealthy tourist from Western Europe and the United States, united by the myth of one of the last places on earth inhabited by cannibals. The director very interestingly captured the relations between the guests and the hosts, the impact of tourism on the local culture and the role of researchers in imaging the savage. While the document presents the reality of the 1990s, is continues to encourage reflection on who we are when we travel.
