Vintage 8mm footage from Cairo, Egypt, in 1946 captures a man guiding two donkeys pulling a large wooden plow in a circular pattern across a dry, sandy field. The farmer, wearing a traditional white hat and loose clothing, walks alongside the animals as they work the soil under a bright sky. Palm trees and green foliage frame the rural scene, with the characteristic grain and color fade of mid-century home movie film evident throughout. The clip offers authentic, archival footage of traditional agricultural labor in mid-20th century Egypt.
