a hunter's story
The Great Dance is a film about three San (Bushman) hunters and their extraordinary relationship with the land and the animals. This film shows Africa in a new light, and ancient light not seen before. It shows man and animal at their most extreme limits of endurance through the 'chasing hunt', a ritual never before revealed to the world outside the Kalahari.
The Great Dance as a film has received over 30 major international awards. Now the filmmakers have created a DVD that reveals the many layers of information and debate that lie beyond the film. World renowned athletes, anthropologists and psychologists add exciting insights and explanations. Amongst many features, the DVD offers two short films about the making of 'The Great Dance' – the viewer can even play the ancient rock gong that was used to create the soundtrack.
