content:
This film, shot in 1955, is about a small band of /Gwi San living in the arid landscape of
the central Kalahari Desert (in present-day Botswana). The hardships of their everyday
survival are woven into the songs of a blind musician, Ukxone, who composes music on
a hunting bow. His songs evoke the /Gwi landscape and its diverse wildlife; they depict
the routine of their daily lives: gathering food, collecting water, hunting for animals, and
sharing as a community. Bitter Melons, his favorite song, is about a woman who learned
from her Bantu neighbors to plant melon seeds despite the agriculturalists protesting that
wild melons taste bitter.

content: The three rolls were assembled by the archivist for digitization.

content:
Film footage shot in Rwanda and Uganda.

The first film roll begins with the same shots of an African man and boy as at the end of roll 2000.6.1-9. It includes Ramah Sharpstone and a friend posing with a local tribal chief then with King Mutara III Rudhigwa of Ruanda-Urundi; and the Sharpstones traveling through a game reserve: hippos, a dying antelope being prodded by another antelope, the second antelope fleeing, the dying antelope being dragged off into the bush by a lioness, a large herd of elephants crossing the road, a flock of great white pelicans, and elephants bathing in the river. The flim then switches to black-and-white and inlcudes a lake boat surrounded by Africans and three white men in raingear; views from the boat of other boats and people; a rhino running away from the bank; hippos diving out of the way of the boat; and Ramah and friends standing by a boat. The film then switches back to color and includes a heard of elephants moving away from cars into the bush, others grazing in the savanna, and more grazing by a lake (possibly Lake George).

The second film roll is back in Uganda near Kilembe and includes a mountainside with veins of open ore; huts and buildings (possibly the homes of mine workers); two friends of David Sharpstone walking down a road with a dog; Sharpstone's car turning at the sign "Kasese air field"; mine managers, employees, and geologists filmed coming out of a house and posing for a picture; and western men walking around the grounds of an estate or hotel.

The third film roll includes wildlife grazing.

Footage records traditional Yoruba craft techniques including pottery making, spinning cotton, dyeing thread and cloth, weaving of ikat cloth on a men's loom, and woodcarving. Also filmed is master Yoruba woodcarver, Duga of Meko, carving and painting a ritual effigy of Shango.

content:
Full video record is a documentation project of a day in the life of Asan Tol, a central marketplace/bazaar in Kathmandu. This video cassette records part of the Pachare Festival and accompanying devotions to the three goddesses Bhadrakali, Wotuagina, and Kangesvari. During this annual festival troupes of devotees (identified by red, yellow, and blue hats), transform the bazaar into a kind of religious theatre. Devotees enter the square carrying palequins of their goddess and then circumambulate the square. Shots of the dancers and drummer of Bhudrakali and Wotuagina already in place with large heavy umbrellas being twirled above the respective palequins. Offerings of food and flowers from shopkeepers are showered onto the palequins; Indian vendors attempting to make their way through the crowd are stripped of their loads of food which are then showered onto the palequins as offerings (such antisocial behavior suggests the liminality of the occasion); shots showing the entry of the palequin of Kangesvari which enters the square and circumambulates the palequins of the two other goddesses; the passing of torches by from one palequin to another according to a specific ritual protocol; the rapid exit of the devotees and the palequins with an equally sudden transformation of Asan Tol back to a maretplace.

Full film record of village life in Afghanistan created for the American University Field Staff "Faces of Change" film series. Footage, shot in the Balkh Province of northern Afghanistan, documents the rhythms and rigors of agricultural life among Muslim sedentarists and follows the Maldar, Afghan nomads from the foothills of Hindu Kush, on their peregrinations. Footage includes: various subsistence and economic activities (search for grazing areas, irrigation and plowing of fields, creation of irrigation canal by diverting a river, cycle of the wheat harvest, herding and shearing of sheep, herding of goats, watering animals, gardening, brickmaking, and markets); male recreational and religious activities (horsemanship, male tea gatherings, various musical and dance performances, wrestling matches, boy shaving head of an adult male, men and boys weeding gardens, and religious observances at a mosque); Maldar encampments; setting and breaking camp; camel husbandry; village adjudications; fishing with throw nets; and interiors of nomadic tent houses. The films "Afghan Village", "Naim and Jabar", "Wheat Cycle", "Afghan Nomads: The Maldar" and "Afghan Women" were produced from this film project.
