For example, in the film there were two anthropologist collecting research at the same location. However they ended up with completely opposite results. Mead said that the Arapesh people were very maternal while Fortune concluded that the Arapesh people were more violent and aggressive. This could be a result of the two anthropologists studying different problems, but it could also be the result of one of the anthropologist being ignorant or naive to certain characteristics."
