| Description: | As commentator tells us Morocco's most famous export is live horseflesh, we see some lovely Arabian horses and little foals gamboling about a green field. Several shots of horses being led around for exercise in Haras Moroccans (the state-financed stud farm) near the city of Meknes. Various shots show Berber men celebrating an unnamed occasion by staging a 'Fantasia' - the Moroccan version of a mediaeval jousting tournament. Lots of charging about on horses and firing rifles into the air. People stand watching and huddle in tents around the display area. | |
