Becoming a man in Melanesia | SLICE | Full documentary

This is the epic ordeals of two young men who live on separate Melanesian islands. They will never meet each other but they share a common, singular goal: to make the difficult passage into manhood. Each will face a grueling initiation ritual.

Junior from Kontu island in Papua has to capture a shark armed only with a lasso and a propeller.
Wabak from Pentecost island in Vanuatu has to jump from a wooden tower, his ankle bound with thick vines….

Will they succeed?
