eng In the Homeland of Lacrosse/V domovině lakrosu - promítání filmu na mezinárodní konferenci: 8th CASA Biennial Conference, 2025 – AGEING OF ANTHROPOLOGY, AGEING IN ANTHROPOLOGY The anthropological film In the Homeland of Lacrosse is a continuation of the film trilogy by Lívia Šavelková, Milan Durňak and Tomáš Petráň (Lacrosse - lt´s a way of life 2014, Global Lacrosse Village 2015, On the Shore 2022) dedicated to the anthropology of sport. In their films, the authors reflect on the changing forms of indigenous activities and the various influences shaping the spread and sportization of lacrosse in continental Europe. The previous films show the important role of the Czech Republic in the development of box lacrosse in Europe, as well as its role in the recognition of the game's indigenous roots and indigenous sovereignties. Like Lacrosse - lt´s a way of life, In the Homeland of Lacrosse is a film about cross-cultural encounters. Just as the first film was about the visit of the Haudenosaunee to the Czech Republic, this film is about the visit of the Czechs to the Haudenosaunee. In 2015, the filmmakers, along with the Czech national lacrosse team, traveled to the World Indoor Lacrosse Championships, held for the first time on Haudenosaunee territories, from which lacrosse has spread around the world. Many members of the Czech team encountered for the first time the social and cultural history and ubiquity of lacrosse in indigenous territories. In the film, the filmmakers focus on lacrosse as a specific Haudenosaunee phenomenon. The film was developed under the RAI FILM FESTIVAL CONFERENCE 2023 Lacrosse, V domovině lakrosu; Film, CASA; Visual anthropology, Anthropology of Sport, Ethnographic film
