Makepung: The Story of a Balinese Buffalo Racer

The fearless buffalo racers of West Bali preserve their unique tradition by passing it down to the next generation.
In Jembrana, West Bali, the tradition of buffalo racing known as Makepung is a sporting contest unlike any other. For jockeys, it’s more than a race, it's a way to connect with one’s ancestors, gain respect from the community, and to pass on culture to the next generation.
