Women and girls are arranged in a semicircle on the dancing-place of Sara village. They clap out the rhythm of the "goshele"-dance and sing songs in praise of several rich and famous men of the country. A couple take their places for dancing, the two partners facing each other. For some measures the boy and the girl perform swaying movements on the spot, then both at a time perform a high leap and stamp their right or left foot on the ground. The high leap is performed three times, then the dancers pass with stamping steps by each other and each goes to the place previously occupied by his partner. This figure is always repeated, it is performed in the film by different male and female dancers. A particularly well performed figure is acclaimed by the women with quavering.
