Women and girls of Sara village are arranged in a semicircle on the dancingplace, clapping their hands and singing songs of praise. In front of the semicircle a couple take their place for dancing. The boy places himself by the right side of the girl, takes her arm and performs with her the figure of the "al beher"-dance, a combination of long and high leaps with "leapturn". The film only presents excerpts from the dance which, however, show the characteristic figure several times in detail.
