Atilogivu: The Story of a Wrestling Match

Film Reel

Director:
Year: 1982

The film is introduced as being about the Ibu people, east of the River Niger. No wrestling is depicted, but the entire film documents very gymnastic dancing to drum and flute music, perhaps a celebration in preparation for a wrestling match. At the very beginning of the film, a sign reads Girls High School, Umunze.
