Summary In 1951, Laurence and Lorna Marshall and their two children, Elizabeth and John, set out to find the Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert. Their aim was to study and document their life and culture. While in Nyae Nyae the Marshall family documented everyday life as well as unusual events and activities, producing a massive body of work that continues to define the fields of anthropology and ethnographic filmmaking today. Encapsulating 50 years of Namibian history, A Kalahari Family represents a lifetime of documentation, research, and personal contact by filmmaker John Marshall Event Filmed over a period of 50 years, from 1951-2001 Notes English and San, with English subtitles Shown during the Margaret Mead Film & Video Festival, 2002 Print version record Subject !Kung (African people) Ethnology -- Namibia.
