A pseudo-documentary, “Samarang” tells the story of lowly Ahmang (Captain A.V. Cockle) and his socially superior love, Sai-Yu (Theresa Seth).  Both live in the village of Samarang in the Indian Ocean.  Because Sai-Yu is the daughter of a chief and Ahmang is but a poor fisherman, he needs to increase his wealth before asking for her hand.  Thus he accepts the perilous offer of the wily Chang-Fu, who seeks pearl divers.  Ahmang must brave the treacherous waters of the Forbidden Lagoon of Sakai, home to bloodthirsty cannibals, killer sharks, and a monstrous grasping octopus.  Sai-Yu and Ahmang’s younger brother Ko-Hai come along for kicks, too.  Ahmang finds his pearl, but he and Sai-Yu are stranded on the island, where they befriend a local orangutan.  When they return to the boat, a shark kills Ko-Hai, and Ahmang must get revenge.

Like an antipodean version of Romeo and Juliet, it emerges that Warri and Yatungka became the last nomads because they had married outside their tribal laws and eloped to the most inaccessible of regions. In 1977 the land was stricken by a severe drought and their tribal elders mounted a search for them with the help of a party of white men led by Dr Bill Peasley and one of their own number, a childhood friend named Mudjon. The film takes Dr Peasley back into the desert to relive his momentous journey with Mudjon and culminates with poignant archival footage of the elderly couple found naked and starving.
