Life on Tatooine was a holodocumentary that aired in 1 ABY. The film was broadcast on orders of the Imperial Council, who felt that it would improve the loyalty to the Galactic Empire of those who viewed it. Imperial forces were ordered to watch it.
The film consisted of live, unedited footage of Mos Eisley on Tatooine. Various shots showed citizens of the spaceport going about their daily lives. The holodocumentary also caught visitors to the town, such as Bimm smuggler Rycar Ryjerd running from Imperial stormtroopers and being scared by a stilt-legged creature.
The film's longest segment took place in Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina, where the bartender Ackmena was on duty. As the footage aired, the Empire ordered a curfew, forcing the cantina patrons to head home prematurely. The crowd grew unruly, but Ackmena managed to sway them to leave with her rendition of "Goodnight, But Not Goodbye," accompanied by the cantina band, Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes.
