content: Edited film: the dambio dance is performed at the annual feast of the margai for this clan in Chad. Mostly women participate in the dance, but it is evident that they have drunk millet beer before the performance. Eventually the dancers lose the rhythm, some quarreling takes place, and the dance dissolves in part.
