Buzkashi!

Buzkashi! follows Azam, a traditional herder and Buzkashi player, as he trains for a season of the most visually stunning and violent sport in the world. Since ancient times, Central Asian shepherds herding their animals between pastures frequently faced attacks from wolves. To save their flocks, brave horsemen would chase and grab the wolves, a skill that eventually evolved into a sport—the wolf replaced by a goat carcass. Playing among a mass of 200 horsemen, players demonstrate their individual strength, courage, and honour by maneuvering through the scrum to carry the carcass across the goal line.
