In A Nutshell

An amusing film showing how the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) helps developing countries help themselves. It shows the imaginary country of Bongolia, where the chief product is bongo nuts, and how experts from a country with knowhow teach the Bongolians profitable ways of growing and marketing. Soon, they are on a solid economic footing which enables them, in turn, to help other struggling countries. That is the philosophy of CIDA's cooperative giving, as propounded in this short.
