The Bajao: Seagoing Nomads

New York, Phoenix/BFA Films Video
"Describes the life-style of Bajao nomads of Southeast Asia, who spend
most of their lives on outrigger canoes traveling from the coral reefs
and uninhabited islands between the Philippines, Indonesia, and
Malaysia. Shows a family as they fish, hunt for food and water on an
uninhabited island, and gather with other Bajaos to repair canoes,
gossip, and participate in special ceremonies."
