In a small indigenous tribe, pregnant women have to choose between having their child with their midwife or with a doctor in town. The village's shaman organizes the Mitã ritual at the praying house (Opy) where he interprets their dreams of pregnancy and advises them through a ritual of washing their bellies and feet with ashes. Completely spoken in Guarani, a Brazilian indigenous language.
