The film adaptation of the poem "Hassan Arbakesh" by Mirzo Tursunzade reflects the life and culture of the Tajiks of the 20s. How people of that time thought, talked, and also danced. The dance scene, by the way, is one of the highlights of "Hassan arbakesh".

The poem "Hassan Arbakesh" is recognized as one of the best works of the poet. For it, Mirzo Tursunzade was awarded the title of Lenin Prize laureate, and the plot was filmed at the Tajikfilm studio in the 60s.

Hassan's story, of course, is not only about himself. Through the image of this hero, Mirzo Tursunzade reflected the Tajik people of that time, when the clash of two cultures was especially acutely felt - the traditional Tajik and the new, Soviet.

The main character Hassan is a representative of the people in whom the author wanted to embody the image of a simple man, a native of the most ordinary and hardworking strata.

There is not a single bookish expression in the hero's speech, he speaks in a manner that is widespread among the people. At the same time, Hassan, despite his illiteracy, is full of interest in everything new and his questions literally pester his educated companions, who meet him in the course of the plot.

Hassan is charismatic and energetic, and one of the most striking scenes of the film adaptation of the poem was the dance scene when he meets the beautiful Sadaf and decides to impress her. Together with Sadaf, the audience was also impressed – the courageous and handsome actor brilliantly performed a native male dance:

This scene is still impressive – users still leave positive feedback and comments under the video.

Hassan demonstrates his agility and masculinity through his dance. And this dance itself is a reflection of the Tajik culture of that time: dancing, Tajiks expressed their emotions, demonstrated their state of mind and character, and even, as shown in the film, simple but charming guys conquered the hearts of beauties.

The preservation of such dances plays an important role in maintaining Tajik culture, since they contain the history and traditions of the ancestors.
