mcaetano added this video and said
Andy Jillings' famous ethnographical documentary about a Yanomami community.

Part four :
Gathering.

__________
Note :

At least, contrarily to this version, "Warriors of the Amazon" mentions the fact that, in yanomami culture, a dead person's name is normally taboo and shouldn't be uttered. This is the reason why, in this sequence, enquiries are made through play on words and approximations. "Spirits of the rainforest" forgets to precise this.

Also, according to the "Warriors of the Amazon" commentary, the two shamans are actually curing each other from curses they had previously put on each other.
