content: Ethnographic film documents the Easter weekend market in Yavi, a small town in Jujuy Province, Argentina, along the border with Bolivia. The film was shot in March 1966 and released in 1969. In 1996, Prelorán re-edited the film, updated the titles and credits, and may have recorded a new narration. In 2008, he slightly re-edited the film once more, using a digital video editing program. Prelorán also produced an English version through the Ethnographic Film Program at UCLA in the 1970s or 1980s. The HSFA holds three versions.
