AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'As he’s heading for Australia on leave, senior patrol officer Steve McAllister (Chips Rafferty) is recalled to take a patrol into unmapped territory in the highlands of Australian-administered New Guinea. An old prospector, 'Sharkeye’ Kelly (Reg Lye), has discovered oil during an unauthorised expedition that claimed his brother’s life. McAllister is annoyed that he must take a French doctor, a UN malaria specialist (Françoise Christophe) into the interior, but she becomes crucial to the expedition’s success, when they encounter hostile tribes in 'Paradise Valley’.'
