A movie that really struck a chord with my son when he was probably middle school age was called, End of the Spear. I took him to see it when it was in the theaters and he said afterwards "Did that really happen"? It's a good one. Not sure if you can find it anywhere, but if not, when I get down there I have a DVD of it that you can borrow if you'd like.

I certainly remember that movie. Have not seen it for a long time though. Took some anthropology classes at the University of Nevada, Reno and it was NOTHING but quite interesting how some "primitive" societies interacted with much more technologically advanced ones.
