Portrait of Bedouin Life

Follow the old Bedouin tracks to learn the meaning of their dances. Wide wadis, large rolling dunes. Saffron, frankincense, cinnamon, mint leaves, prayer. A slow rhythm dictated by the great heat. Young girls care for the young or sick in goat-hair tents. Carpet-weaving, the camel, the literature of the desert. The peacefulness of the oasis, the work of the tribe. Advice and wisdom. A belly dance show. The severity of circumstances; the extreme luxury of a thousand stars.
