Divine Horsemen: The Living Gods of Haiti

1993 · 0h 52m · Documentary · United States of America

This intimate ethnographic study of Voudoun dances and rituals was shot by Maya Deren during her years in Haiti (1947-1951); she never edited the footage, so this “finished” version was made by Teiji Ito and Cherel Ito after Deren’s death.
