content: Edited film: shows various techniques and activities involved as the people of Nonuti gather potential seafood: youths scrape the beach at ebb tide for mussels which are later heated over a fire for consumption; another youth digs with his bare hands for crabs which are then roasted between coconut palm leaves; a woman digs for mussels while another woman probes for worms and cuts off the desired skin; and a man catches an octopus with his bare hands and kills it with a bite to the eye.
