content: Edited film: at the edge of the village of Tetua a man climbs a coconut palm tree, harvests young coconuts, and frees them from their fiber shells. He drinks the liquid from one of the nuts after boring a hole in it. Finally he cuts the nut in half and uses an Asaphis mussel shell to eat the coconut meat.
