      abstract = {A Place Without People: Tanzania tells the story of the  eviction of the indigenous people from their lands in  Tanzania, to make way for the creation of the world's most  famous nature reserves. In Tanzania, one of the poorest  nations in the world, the government, the tourist industry  and conservation organizations have advanced the idea that  Africans are intruders into what was once a pristine Garden  of Eden. The film describes how before World War II the  land of the Maasai was seized by British colonialists to  set aside for their own sport -- hunting. But as game grew  scarce, the British realized they should preserve it and  the Serengeti was turned into a vast national park in the  1950's and '60's. This land, possibly the longest-inhabited  place on earth, was labelled a 'primordial wilderness' and  although there was no evidence that local people threatened  wildlife, it was decided that 'no men, not even native  ones, should live inside its borders.' The film explores  how Western perceptions about nature have evolved through  time and how these perceptions radically altered both the  East African landscape and society. From the famous  wildlife reserves of the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro to  the remote mountains of Mahale, the documentary gives voice  to the indigenous people who 'shouldn't be there,' who  continue to be antagonized and excluded, while the tourist  industry is rapidly depleting the area's natural resources,  such as water.},
