Coverage:Ecuador
Date:2006
Description:This is a video recording, transcribed and translated into Spanish and formatted into ELAN containing ten short comic Chachi stories told by a young man in the Chachi community of Tsejpi. Most of the stories deal with funny sexual situations. Briefly the stories concern: 1) A man discovers his wife has a lover and he gets revenge by putting glue in a strategic spot; 2) A black man goes to the US but has no money to return. He decides to pass himself off as a female prostitute with comic results; 3) A rabbit and a fox get into an argument with the rabbit prevailing in the end; 4) An old man wants to experience a train ride; but is confused and mistakes a black man for the train; 5) The animals have a fiesta, but run out of liquor and because the only sober member is a snail, they send him off to get the liquor with unsuccessful results; 6) A group of animals want to trap and exterminate a rabbit who is stealing all their food. Because the bear is a cousin to the rabbit they pretend the bear has died to lure the rabbit into their trap. The rabbit comes to the funeral but refuses to come close saying he knows the bear is not dead because he is not farting. 7) A parrot mistakes a woman's vagina for a wound. 8) A woman tries to hide a foul-mouthed parrot in her skirt with unsuccessful results. 9) A parrot lies, telling a man that his wife is having relationships with other men. The wife first tries to kill him by freezing him. When that doesn't work she sews up his anus. After a year his stomach is completely swollen and going off to die he encounters a pregnant woman who the parrot believes had committed the same sin he has. 10) A horse with an extremely large sexual appendage is grossing out the police and scandalizing the community. When the owner finally gets the horse to withdraw the appendage the police ask how the owner did it and the owner finally reveals he had frightened the horse by essentially insulting the police.
