content: Edited film: a Chad woman demonstrates the steps taken in order to form a water jug made of clay. The modeling of the vessel is done by the swelling technique; mallets of unburnt clay are used for this purpose. Once the jug is shaped a decoration is carved onto it. The baking of the water jug takes place after two days.
