They call themselves the forgotten people. The Carteret Islanders inhabit some of the most remote and beautiful islands in the South Pacific, a low-lying atoll 60 miles off the coast of Papua New Guinea. The islanders, a matrilineal society of 2,500 people, are known for their rich tradition of music, dance, and storytelling.
