Come by Here

Overview

Filmed with a 16mm spring-wound Bolex camera, this story-driven documentary captures a pivotal moment in the life of the Sepik Iwam people of Hauna Village, deep in the Papua New Guinea jungle. Bible translator Marilyn Laszlo had been living among them for years, joined now by her sister Shirley. As the mission grew, the film introduced light reenactments to convey the depth of transformation taking place. When a neighboring village arrived seeking medical help, what unfolded was both unexpected and profoundly moving.
