They, for example,
wouldn't like our food...

:52:04
and it would have caused problems.
:52:06
And we didn't probably
expect to eat their kind of food.

:52:11
So, um...
:52:14
these two camps mark
a very clear distinction...

:52:17
that I never tried to conceal-
:52:19
that there is a highly technical
group of people here...

:52:23
from a different continent...
:52:26
with a different history behind them...
:52:29
and another group of native Indians...
:52:31
who basically is living here
in this environment...

:52:35
has its own way oflife,
its culture.

The women were getting
madder and madder

:53:01
As the men got drunk on masato
:53:03
The men said
"Why don't you drink with us?"

:53:05
So the women drank some too
:53:09
They felt so good
they wanted some loving

:53:11
But the men
were so drunk they couldn't

:53:49
All through the upper Amazon,
Indians drink masato...

:53:52
an alcoholic beverage
made from a vegetable called yuca.

:53:55
It's an important food source,
making up a large part of the Indians'diet.

:53:59
It's also an essential part of almost
every activity, from morning till night.
