ABOUT

Faces of Change is a series of 25 films that examines 5 cultures selected for their distinct geographic locations: starting with the China Coast at sea level and moving up to Taiwan, then to Afghanistan, Kenya and finally to the mountains of Bolivia. Each location is examined through 5 themes: Rural Society, Education, Rural Economy, Women, and Beliefs.

Shot on 16mm film and funded by the National Science Foundation, the series was produced by Norman Miller, and features the works of some of the finest ethnographic filmmakers of our time.
