With The King Of Italy In Libya (1928)

Описание: Full titles read: "With the King of Italy in Libya - Tribesmen in thousands ride in from the desert to the oasis of Zuara to take part in great "Fantasia" of welcome."



Libya, North Africa.



Intertitle reads: "Exclusive pictures by Pathe Gazette cameraman who accompanied the Royal Tour."



Great shot taken from the back of a moving train of African tribesmen riding along on horses; more shots of the men riding along and waving their rifles in the air. M/S of the King of Italy watching the welcoming display with other dignitaries.



Various shots show the tribesmen playing drums and dancing; some of them have long ponytails that they flick about in time to the music. Some other African men twirl around in a dance display, playing drums and pipes while a crowd watches - look a little like whirling dervishes.
