Noted: Highlanders hold on to culture and survival
Abstract
Reviewed documentary directed by: Verena Thomas Publication date: May, 2011The trilogy of short films on this DVD records the lives of three Highlanders and their struggle to survive, support their families and keep a hold on their culture.
