Plot (short): Documentary, geography, social, see episodes. There is a 2 part 1990 series with 2 VHS (14+11 minutes), other is about Japan, by the Close Up Foundation. First I thought, that this might be the same, but then I read that the production was still not finished in 1993 or 1994. Aired in 1995 or (confirmed) 1996.Few infos of both. (But documentaries are less of interest). Subtitle is: Pacific Horizons: In the shadow of the skyline (WDR) but might be another one.
