Ethnographic film documents the Araucanian tribe of Mapuche Indians at Ruca Choroy, an Indian reservation in a small valley of the Southern Andes, Nenquin Province, Argentina, where approximately eighty families live. Narrated by Damacio Caitruz, the head of the tribe, the film explores daily and religious life in this isolated settlement. The film was shot during the summer of 1966 and was originally released in 1971 in both Spanish and English. In 1996, Prelorán updated the titles and credits of the Spanish version, re-titling it "Damacio Caitruz". He may also have re-edited the film at that time. In 2008, Prelorán slightly re-edited the film once more, using a digital video editing program. The HSFA holds three versions.
