content: Edited film: only a few women among the Diongor in Chad are skilled in making millet flat cakes, which are made exclusively from Pennisetum. These cakes are generally made for sale; only the unsold will be eaten by the people themselves, for flat cakes are considered a fancy dish. The entire process of making these cakes is shown here.
