518    Originally produced by Documentary Educational Resources 
       in 1991. 
520    Attracted by the myths of town life and the chance of work,
       people from villages all over Papua New Guinea have come 
       to the towns. Cowboy and Maria in Town tells the story of 
       two such migrants living in the settlements that surround 
       the capital, Port Moresby. Cowboy is a reformed 'rascal'- 
       unemployed and illiterate with a criminal record. He 
       invents an electric guitar out of scrap materials and 
       plays his distinctive rock-and-roll on street corners, 
       earning just enough for his family to get by. Maria lives 
       an equally precarious existence. Seasonal gardening and 
       her husband's small income as a night security guard are 
       their sole means of survival. Only her resilient humor 
       keeps her going when inter-tribal conflicts, inflamed by 
       frustration and alcohol, erupt in the settlement. Cowboy 
       and Maria are vital players in the new urban Papua New 
       Guinea. Their interwoven stories highlight the 
       consequences of urban drift, where traditional and Western
       values meet. These intelligent and determined optimists 
       are far from being Third World victims; they go about 
       their daily lives with humor and imagination, rising to 
       the enormous cultural changes that confront them.
