content:
Edited film shot in the early 1970s and released in 1973 representing various attractions and destinations in Mexico during the winter season. Similar activities are often shot in two or three locations, allowing for comparison; these broader categories include tourists enjoying beach and pool resorts, footage of various temples and ziggurats, open air markets, fishing, and dancing. Notable events include Oaxaca's "Night of the Radishes" and Taxco's Blessing of the Animals ceremony, and a rodeo, but the bulk of the footage is quotidian. Footage is devoted to both rural and urban destinations as well as their residents. This film is a travelogue, made to accompany live explanatory lectures by the filmmakers, and as such is missing much identifying information; for example, though panoramic shots of countryside and towns accompany most changes in setting, there is rarely any photographed signage to identify the new location. The film tends toward the informal and humorous and includes footage of the filmmakers themselves.

Locations include: San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Guadalajara, Mexico City, Acapulco, Oaxaca, Mazatlan, Pátzcuaro, Ajijic.

content: Kalman "Kal" Antal Muller is a photographer and author who spent several years during the late 1960s and early 1970s living with and documenting kastom (in Bislama; tradition or custom, in English) communities in Vanuatu, an island nation in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. The Kal Muller films and photographs of Vanuatu (New Hebrides) consists largely of unedited reels of 16mm film and 35mm photographic slides that Muller shot on multiple trips to the Banks, Malekula, Pentecost, and Tanna islands from 1968-1974. Supplementary textual materials include correspondence, production records, and published articles related to Muller's time in Vanuatu.

label: Biographical Note

content:
Kalman "Kal" Antal Muller is a photographer and author who spent several years during the late 1960s and early 1970s living with and documenting kastom (in Bislama; tradition or custom, in English) communities in Vanuatu, an island nation in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. Born in Hungary in 1939, Muller moved to the United States at age twelve. He first visited Vanuatu in 1966 following a sailing trip across the Pacific. As he developed ties with Ni-Vanuatu communities, Muller filmed and photographed traditional practices on different islands across the archipelago, including the Banks, Malekula, Pentecost, and Tanna islands. Muller filmed the naghol (land dive) carried out by the Bunlap community on Pentecost Island, resulting in the film Land-Divers of Melanesia, a collaboration with Robert Gardner and the Harvard Film Study Center. Muller also performed the naghol himself and wrote about the experience in a 1970 article for National Geographic, "Land Diving with the Pentecost Islanders," which was illustrated with his photographs. His time in Vanuatu provided Muller with material for other published pieces featuring his photographs, including a second story for National Geographic and several articles in the Journal de la Société des Océanistes. His photographs and films of kastom communities garnered interest and support from several cultural anthropologists at the time, including E. Richard Sorenson and Alan Lomax, as well as from NIH scientist D. Carleton Gajdusek.

From 1973 to 1975, with backing from Sorenson and Gajdusek, Muller also spent time with the Wixárika (Huichol) community in San Andrés Cohamiata, Jalisco, Mexico, and shot extensive film footage focusing on Wixárika religious practices.

Muller completed a PhD in Modern Language and Literature with a Major in French from the University of Arizona in 1973. Since 1976 he has lived in Indonesia, mainly Papua, where he went on to write English-language guides to traveling and diving in the region. He has also worked as an art dealer and promotor of Komoro sculpture, and as an advisor on indigenous history, culture, and social development to Freeport, a mining company operating in Papua.

The Kal Muller films and photographs of Vanuatu (New Hebrides) contain Muller's extensive visual documentation of traditional Ni-Vanuatu practices, including Small Nambas funerary practices; ceremonial dances and preparation of kava by followers of the John Frum movement on Tanna Island; yam harvest and preparation; and the naghol (land dive) carried out by the Bunlap community on Pentecost Island. The bulk of the collection consists of unedited reels of 16mm film and 35mm photographic slides that Muller shot on multiple trips to the Banks, Malekula, Pentecost, and Tanna islands from 1968-1974 with support from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Strokes, the National Anthropological Film Center, and National Geographic. The collection also contains supplementary textual materials, such as correspondence between Muller and E. Richard Sorenson, production records, and published articles related to Muller's film projects. The collection also includes a small number of photographic slides taken in Hong Kong.

Films and slides are organized in separate series by format, then by geographic region/film project.

content: Film footage of daily life and surroundings in rural areas and port cities of the Caribbean. Film is divided between scenes of daily life in rural areas (washing clothes, breaking up rocks, transportation via cart and poled boat, local homes); daily life in towns (street scenes and restaurants, as well as military exercises past a parade review stand); and film footage of monumental buildings and harbors in port cities. A significant amount of time is spent in rural villages, and attention is given to individuals rather than just large crowds. Film also includes city street scenes. Bulleted information is transcribed from film reels and/or cans. Filming locations include: Trinidad, Caracas, Curacao, Panama, Jamaica, Haiti, and Havana, Cuba. There are some intertitles identifying places and activities.

In 1996, Prelorán re-edited the film, updated the titles and credits, and may have recorded a new narration. In 2008, he slightly re-edited the film once more, using a digital video editing program. Prelorán also produced an English version through the Ethnographic Film Program at UCLA in the 1970s or 1980s. The HSFA holds three versions.

Recordings from 1978-1990 are synchronous and relate directly to the film. Additional audio recordings can be found in the Nicholas England collection and in accession 2009.3.
