Inside the cockfighting pits in Thailand, in Philippines and the ones in Guadeloupe, Aod, Edgar and Dolores are preparing their roosters for an upcoming fight in front of a public of bettors and aficionados. For the Thais, the Filipinos and the Guadeloupeans, this sport runs through their veins meanwhile it is a tradition that seems meant to disappear. Why are these men so passionate for those ritualized cockfights in Thailand, in Philippines and in Guadeloupe?
Nei gallodromi di Chiang Mai in Tailandia e di Morne-à-l’Eau nella Guadalupa, Aod e Dolores Belair preparano i loro galli ad un combattimento imminente per un pubblico di scommettitori ed appassionati. Anche se è una tradizione in via d’estinzione, tale sport scorre nelle vene di questi due popoli. Perché degli uomini si appassionano a tal modo per i combattimenti di galli fino a ritualizzarli in Tailandia e nella Guadalupa?
