In the rainy season, the Ashaninka have no planting to do, and the flooded river restricts access to certain gardens. Hunting and fishing are more difficult, but there is still plenty of work. We see people making canoes, weaving baskets and spinning cotton for cloth. Munumuru palm is collected for food also to make soap, which can then be sold. The Ashaninka let their activities be dictated by seasonal change, accepting the rain with good humor.</div><div><br /></div><div><div><b>Films in the <a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages-indigenous-video-makers-series-p947.aspx">Indigenous Video Makers</a> series</b></div><div><a href="https://store.der.org/dancing-with-a-dog-p854.aspx">Dancing with a Dog</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/from-the-ikpeng-children-to-the-world-p837.aspx">From the Ikpeng Children to the World</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/kinja-iakaha-a-day-in-the-village-p717.aspx">Kinja Iakaha, A Day in the Village</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/the-living-forest-p685.aspx">The Living Forest</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/moyngo-p643.aspx">Moyngo</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/ngun-el-p586.aspx">Nguné Elü</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/one-must-be-curious-p553.aspx">One Must Be Curious</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/a-path-to-live-p496.aspx">A Path to Live</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/the-rainy-season-p490.aspx">The Rainy Season</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/shomtsi-p413.aspx">Shomõtsi</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/trainees-for-the-future-p345.aspx">Trainees for the Future</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/wapt-mnhn-the-xavantes-initiation-p240.aspx">Wapté Mnhõnõ, The Xavante's Initiation</a><br /><a href="https://store.der.org/wai-rini-the-power-of-the-dream-p236.aspx">Wai'á Rini, The Power of the Dream</a></div></div><br /><br />Visit <a href="https://store.der.org/ashaninka-tsirotsi-c933all.aspx">Ashaninka, Tsirotsi</a> to see additional products in this category.</div>
