Synopsis
The documentary traces the origin of the Amaragooli people, their migration and settlement and cultural practices. The Amaragooli carried traditions right from birth to the end. Traditions were performed after a child's birth to confirm that it was sent by their ancestors. The boys were circumcised traditionally at the age of 12, failure to which called for ridicule in the society. During marriage, they focus on the upbringing of the bride. Elders from the bride’s side state the dowry price of the bride. In death, the owner of the house is buried on the right side of the house and the wife on the left side. They practiced farming and Christianity.
