N/um Tchai: The Ceremonial Dance of the !Kung Bushmen

N/um Tchai: The Ceremonial Dance of the !Kung Bushmen (1969) is a documentary film directed by John Marshall.

Tchai is the word used by Ju/'hoansi to describe getting together to dance and sing; n/um can be translated as medicine, or supernatural potency. In the 1950's, when this film was shot, Ju/'hoansi gathered for "medicine dances" often, usually at night, and sometimes such dances lasted until dawn.
