This is a fascinating journey through the oral memory, the sacred geography and religious imaginary of this people. An ideal itinerary that progressively abandons the inhabited world and enters the abysses of the mythical woodlands - the silent witnesses of the groups ancient life style - only to lose itself in the thick of the immense forests that even today surround the settlements of the Kulunge Rai.
