This award-winning documentary tells the story of how global technology and culture have influenced life in remote regions of the world. Using the story of an Israeli woman and her radio as a case in point, the film offers an informative and often humorous look at life in the late 20th century. Rivka Solarsky is tuned into radio quiz shows day and night -- a passion that has brought her numerous prizes, from the useful to the ridiculous.
