  Where to Watch

Buzkashi has been a popular sport in Central Asia for centuries. It is played only by men, who battle it out against one another on horseback. We see players galloping across vast plains, against a backdrop of snow-topped mountains and blue skies, and leaping on each other like rugby players to get hold of a goat carcass and take it across the goal line. The sound of whinnying horses is intensified by exhilarating drum rhythms.
