Lost Continent (1954 film)


Continente Perduto aka Lost Continent and Continent Perdu is a 1955 Italian documentary film about Maritime Southeast Asia including Borneo.

French literary critic Roland Barthes dedicates an essay to the film in his semiological work, Mythologies. He criticizes the filmmakers as perpetuating a European sense of exoticism, while also imposing their own Christian values onto the Buddhist traditions of the region.
