BurY MY Heart in<br />

DresDen<br />

by Bettina renner<br />

A Catholic cemetery in Dresden, Germany. In the<br />

middle of a meadow, a small grave. And at the foot of the<br />

grey and weathered gravestone, waving in the wind,<br />

a small American flag. The inscription chiselled into the<br />

old stone reveals who was laid to his final rest here<br />

in 1914: the Native American Edward Two-Two, a Sioux<br />

chief. How did a Sioux Indian end up in a place like<br />

Dresden so long ago ? And why was he buried there at<br />

his own request, so far from his native lands and contrary<br />

to all Indian traditions ? The film tries to find answers<br />

by tracing the extraordinary life story of the Indian chief<br />

Edward Two-Two at Pine Ridge Reservation in South<br />

Dakota.<br />

BuZkasHi !<br />

by Mirza najeeb<br />

From the shadows of the majestic Pamir Mountains of<br />

Tajikistan comes a story of Azam, a shepherd and<br />

Buzkashi champion, who faces the pressures of mod-<br />

ernization in the sport and in his own personal life.<br />

Azam plays as an individual for honor and integrity, but<br />

his success is increasingly thwarted by organized<br />

alliances, or ‘mafias’, encouraged by his rival Khurshed,<br />

a member of Tajikistan’s nouveau riche. Khurshed be-<br />

lieves that team play is the future of the sport. Between<br />

challenges on the field and within his own family, Azam<br />

tries to find a place for himself in the new Tajikistan.<br />
