The German IWF (a scientific institute for documentary films of all kinds – nature, society...) began recently to add previews to the items in the film catalog.
In its collection, IWF has around 20 films on native/folk styles. It already added previews of the films on wrestling of Nuba and Kaba in Africa and of “Xingu Indians” in Amazonia.
Here you can watch the previews of 2 films on
