Flamingods - Rhama
111 votes
The concept for the Rhama music video revolves around a mysterious society of Pakistani wrestlers that are present in Dubai. Dedicating their lives to a traditional form of wrestling called Kushti, their matches take place every Friday during sunset in a sandy lot of land in old Dubai. Over the past few months we have attended these matches, and got to know the wrestlers with the help of our Urdu translator. In making this video, the Barbu TV guys were invited to live in their rural Al Ain apartment for a few days. The video shows the culture surrounding the wrestling, and the symbolism and ritual behind it; as well as flashes of everyday Pakistani life in the UAE – perhaps a surprising visual given the country’s notoriety for being a glossy metropolis.Directed By: Barbu.tv - Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/barbutv // Facebook: https://goo.gl/zQubL8 Cameraman: Yannick poffet Edit: Maxime Cramatte Drone Operator - Sameer Antulay Opening Credits by Raimund Wong - http://www.raimundwong.com
