Summary:The film looks on the different stages in the construcction of the Banam. The Santhals consider the Banam, which is of an organic origin, to be an extension of their physical self. Banam is made out of a single wooden log, from the Gulanj Baha or Gulu cin tree. It is planted by the Santhals near their houses.
