In the American release, the credits roll shortly after the climax, even though picture continues to roll, showing certain conversations with music covering the dialogue. The US theatrical version of the film was significantly shorter than the original version released overseas. The Salute of the Jugger was shot in the desert of Coober Pedy, Australia. The Game is played much harder and meaner in the Nine Cities. She and Gar inspire Sallow to challenge The League and expunge his past.īut Kidda and Gar do not realise that the City games are for much more than honour and victory, they will need to fight for their very survival. Kidda ( Joan Chen), an ambitious peasant girl, joins the team after a game in her dog town where she virtually destroyed her competition. Sallow, the team leader, has played in the League of the Nine Cities before, but was cast out because of his indiscretions with an Overlord's daughter. The team consists of Sallow ( Rutger Hauer), Dog-Boy ( Justin Monjo), Mbulu ( Delroy Lindo), Big Cimber ( Anna Katarina), and Young Gar ( Vincent D'Onofrio). It is a dream among roving juggs to be good enough to get The League's attention and, with it, all of the luxuries afforded a League player. Members of The League live in luxury almost equal to that of aristocrats. Each of The Nine Cities fields its own team of juggs in an organization known as The League, and its membership is maintained with a fresh stream of new players who are proven veterans of the travelling "dog-town" games by their collection of trophy skulls.
The Nine Cities, buried deep underground, are home to affluent and powerful members of the aristocracy.
However, not all in this time live so sparsely. One unarmed player-the "quick"-runs with the skull while being protected by his/her teammates from attack by the opposing team. The Game involves two armoured teams of five attempting to score by placing a dog skull on the opposing team's goalpost. Their trophy is the dog skull from the town.

They might be considered professional athletes, as they make their living through the tribute paid by the town people, should they defeat the local team. It is played by bands of roving teams known as juggs, who challenge local teams. What little entertainment exists comes primarily from a brutal sport known as The Game. In a barren world caused by wars waged in the 20th century and now forgotten, most live from hand to mouth in enclaves known as "market-towns" or "dog-towns", scrounging out a bare subsistence harvesting hardy crops, raising dogs as food, and trading in trinkets from the past.
