Will Millard wants to spend a year living with the Korowai tribe of West Papua in My Year with the Tribe.

And the explorer thinks he has found the perfect family after meeting treehouse-dwelling Markus, his two wives and five children.

But as this series begins, Will discovers the tribe is accustomed to tourists and film crews, and the diet of grubs and rat’s testicles is for the cameras.

Can Will find a non-Disneyland version of tribal living?
