The Search for Truth is a 41-minute film produced by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It explores the idea that science and religion are not incompatible, but instead are both means to coming to an understanding of absolute truth. The film is prefaced by a monologue from David O. McKay, then-president of the LDS church, and includes interviews with three prominent scientists: Wernher von Braun, the father of rocket science; Harvey Fletcher, the father of stereophonic sound; and Henry Eyring, prominent theoretical chemist. It also included several animations and historical anecdotes that illustrate the LDS position on the positive force of science.

The film reel is currently located at Brigham Young University, and is kept in cold storage as part of the L. Tom Perry Special Collections of the Harold B. Lee Library.

In the story, Johnny Lingo (played by Makee K. Blaisdell) is a shrewd, but honest and well-liked Polynesian trader. It is actually told from the perspective of a Caucasian shopkeeper, Mr. Harris (played by Francis Urry). Lingo has come to one island to bargain for a wife. Mahana (played by Naomi Kahoilua), the young woman he desires, is considered by her neighbors and even her father to be of little value, sullen, ugly and undesirable. As the bargaining is about to begin, women of the island brag to each other of how many cows their husbands had given for each of them, and comment that Mahana's father will be lucky to see one cow as Lingo's offer. The counselor advises Mahana's father to ask for three cows so that finally, Moki (Mahana's father, played by Joseph Ah Quin) will at least get one cow.

Le 3 juillet 1979, Chantal Dupont, 15 ans, et son ami Maurice Marcil, 14 ans, reviennent d'un spectacle de Gérard Lenorman sur l'île Sainte-Hélène et se dirigent vers leurs domiciles à Longueuil. Ils prennent le pont Jacques-Cartier où les attendent deux délinquants, Normand Guérin et Gilles Pimparé. Ils les emmènent de force sous le pont sur une poutre, leur volent leur argent (2 $). Ils violent Chantal Dupont puis jettent les deux enfants en bas du pont. On les retrouvera noyés dans le fleuve Saint-Laurent une dizaine de jours plus tard. Pimparé et Guérin ne tardent pas à être appréhendés.
