Caption: A Kuikoro woman prepares the tapioca beiju pancake that will be used as communion bread for the final night of the 2012 CONPLEI Congress. The bread for communion is a flat 'bread' made from the flour of the sweet manioc root. She was asked to make a large batch for the Congress because she is especially skilled at this task.
