This was a Turkish folk dance festival, with very different performances by young women and men. It took place in Pergamum, under this city's ancient acropolis, a segment from "What the Sultan Saw”, highlighting the history of Turkey and Constantinople/Istanbul, featuring the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman Empires, plus modern Turkey.
