Rugovo

The Albanian minority living in Macedonia retains many of its national customs and folk traditions, including Rugovo. This dance is a representation of a death and resurrection ritual, performed to demonstrate territorial rights. Adapted for the stage by Neal Sandler.

1979 video filmed at Richmond Civic Center Memorial Auditorium, Richmond, CA.
