Eating With Cannibals

About This Movie

Eating With Cannibals is a rather gripping exploration of a subject that most would rather not think about. Osca Humphreys captures Piers Gibbon's journey into the heart of Papua New Guinea's rain forest, where he encounters the remnants of cannibalistic rituals. The pacing is deliberate, giving you time to digest the heavy themes of taboo and cultural practices. The documentary’s atmosphere is dense, almost claustrophobic at times, as Gibbon interacts with the Biami tribe, showcasing their traditions in a way that feels respectful yet unflinching. The visuals are striking, making the lush, dangerous setting a character in its own right. It's an eye-opening look at humanity's darker impulses, without glorifying them.
