The Great Dance is a fascinating documentary by the award-winning Foster brothers (who also directed Cosmic Africa) that examines the unique relationship between the Kalahari Desert Bushmen and the harsh landscape of the Kalahari Desert in Southern Africa. Filmed through the eyes of !Nqate, a hunter, the documentary follows the life of !Nqate as a hunter and tracker. The film is the raw and poignant story of !Nqate's survival, as told in his own words. The never-before-seen footage of the death-defying ‘chasing hunt', for which the Kalahari Bushmen are famous, makes this a unique and remarkable cinematic experience.
