- 1971 ----- color ----- 8 min ----- 16mm
- Buzkashi is performed on horseback by Afghan tribesmen honoring the King on his birthday at an annual festival in Kabul. One of the toughest sports in the world, buzkashi requires incredible riding ability on magnificent horses. The intense pride and rivalry of a tribal society, as well as the role of physical superiority and competition in the society, are implicit.
