Performance of the dance of attaining ten

Dikiuram villagers perform the dance of attaining ten, 'Kariu taobo lem'. This is a typical dance occasionally performed by the Liangmai village folks to praise someone who had attained great wealth, or someone who performed a significant deed. The person whose wealth increased would usually build a traditional grand house 'tarenki' to mark his achievement, and as a sign of joy and pride. To celebrate the achievement, they would throw a great feast and invite the villagers. On this auspicious day, he would offer ten each of his livestock to feed the village folks. Thus, the name kariu ‘ten’ taobo ‘reach/achieve’. The villagers will dance this kariu taobo lem in his honour.

In the Shadow of the Tiger captions transcript

In the Shadow of the Tiger

Documentary about life in the villages surrounding the Buxa Tiger Reserve in West Bengal (Shiltong, South Paro, North Paro, Rajabathkava, and Bothia villages). Villagers and government officials describe a project by the World Bank to create wildlife reserves for endangered species, specifically the Bengal tiger. Villagers struggle to grow enough food, and elephants trample their fields. They were told to resettle elsewhere, but refused to leave their ancestral lands. Selling firewood is a main source of income for most, leading to deforestation in the reserve areas. Government officials committed to providing infrastructure (irrigation, roads, electricity, fences) on the condition that villagers stop cutting down trees on the reserve. The documentary ends with a letter from Tileswar Rabha stating that the villagers have ended their communication with the Forest Department after they shot a villager carrying firewood.
