Malinowski
Documentary about Bronislaw Malinowksi, a tortured soul who took anthropology out of the armchair and into the jungle, establishing it as a rigorous science.
Three-part documentary series about great yarns from the world of anthropology. This edition tells the story of Bronislaw Malinowksi, a man of volcanic passions, obsessed with sex, riven by guilt, a hypochondriac and a social climber, but also a great anthropolgist who took what had been the leisurely pursuit of amateurs out of the armchair and into the jungle, establishing it as a rigorous science.
