Editing The Sunny Side of Life (section)

==Plot==
''The Sunny Side of Life'' takes the audience deep into the heart of Aredoa's culture by delving into the historical and modern-day customs of the small Oakaya Tribe, practitioners of the sun-worshipping Oalasamo religion that was once widespread in Aredoa before the import of Christianity. It examines how the tribe's religion permeates far beyond the culture of the Oakaya tribe and impacts on the Aredoan national identity as a whole, from art to literature, music to architecture, and even how it forms the basis for the name of Aredoa itself.

The documentary explores the unique ways of life within the Oakaya Tribe- such the morning prayers led by tribal matriarch Mamá Cassita at the first break of dawn, the quaint village where every building is adorned with motifs of the sun, and the tending to of the communal gardens that thrive under the sun's benevolence. Over the course of two months, Oakaya old and young alike are interviewed and shadowed by cameras as they go about their day, including the elderly matriarch Mamá Cassita, young siblings Lucífera and Albaluzo, and the tribe's Regional Delegate to the National Assembly, Maravío.

The documentary leads up to the Festilavo d'Oah, the Festival of Sun held at the summer solstice and the most important day of the Oakaya year. Aredoans from all walks of life eagerly wait for the festival that has woven its way into mainstream culture. But nobody quite celebrates like the Oakaya. The Oakaya's celebrations transcend mere festivities, being a spiritual journey of thanksgiving to the life-giving sun. As the film draws to a close, we see and hear the rhythmic beats of traditional instruments, the sundancing, and the feasting by villagers, with the credits rolling as the sun sets on the day.
