"Les Acrobats" is the second short film (out of 5) in the series "Les Malabares", which were filmed during the exhibition of the Malabari, an Indian tribe from the Malabar region, in the Jardin d'Acclimatation from August 15 to October 5, 1902. In this film, the Malabars perform various acrobatic exercises. Some dance on a rope stretched at the end of two bamboos stuck in the ground, carry on their head in perfect balance a pile of earthenware vessels. Others climb like monkeys with a surprising agility, perform the dance of GUYARATIS birds, scratch their heads, peck the ground.
