A Hopi Indian of the Chipolavi village in Arizona farms crops. He digs a hole with a digging stick. He pours corn from a bucket into the deep hole. He then walks down stone steps to a well and pours water through an irrigation system. He removes a stone blocking the flow of the water and it rushes past in a a thick stream. A man removes large metal water cans from a donkey/ burro and fills them at a well. Wide shot of the village on the mesa. A woman and her young daughter sit outside their home. The little girl puts her doll on the ground. The woman grinds dry kernels of corn on the grinding stone/ metate.
