The role of the traditional ethnographer is changing, and Volume III is the only academic collection in the world to offer a comprehensive resource of documentaries, feature films, and shorts made by (and often for) indigenous people who allow us inside their world view, interpret their history, and analyze their culture.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'>At completion, <i>Volume III</i> will contain 500 hours of documentaries, ethnographic films, narrative feature films, and shorts from around the world; 300 of those hours will focus on content from Oceania, Australia, and New Zealand, while the remaining 200 will cover the Americas, Africa, and Asia.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'>Topics covered are simultaneously local and global, with a particular emphasis on the human effects of climate change; sustainability; indigenous and local ways of interpreting history, culture, and cultural change; and traditional knowledge and storytelling.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><b>Key featured content includes:</b><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoListParagraph style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:.25in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-indent:-.25in;line-height:normal;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='font-family:Symbol'><span style='mso-list:Ignore'><img width=18 height=12 src="cid:image001.jpg@01CFF750.19C46760" alt="*"><span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span></span><![endif]><i><span style='color:#C00000'>In My Father’s Country</span></i> and <i><span style='color:#C00000'>Dhakiyarr vs. the King</span></i><span style='color:#C00000'>,</span> two seminal works from Australian filmmaker Tom Murray, whose work with communities in Arnhem Land, which opens windows onto this remote region of Australia through the documentation of rite of passage ceremonies rarely seen outside the community.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoListParagraph style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:.25in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-indent:-.25in;line-height:normal;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='font-family:Symbol'><span style='mso-list:Ignore'><img width=18 height=12 src="cid:image001.jpg@01CFF750.19C46760" alt="*"><span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span></span><![endif]><i><span style='color:#C00000'>Stranger in My Skin–Ray Cotti</span></i>, which deals with the identity challenges facing many indigenous youth in Australia and around the world.
