Bigpela Bagarap (Big Damage) takes place in Papua New Guinea and tells the story of exploitation and unkept promises. The unfortunate subjects are those that find themselves being treated as second class citizens in their own country, treatment reserved on the part of the lumber companies and corrupt politicians. The landowners find themselves constricted to sign documents that they do not comprehend, deceived with the promise of access to services such as clean water, health and education. In reality these basic services are rarely granted, instead there proceeds the destruction of territory utilized for hunting,  the pollution of water sources  and the permanent destruction to a certain style of life.
