Directed by Louis Mouchet, this documentary weaves a rich tapestry of cultural practices and local lore. The tone is contemplative, almost ethereal, as it captures the serene yet mysterious landscapes. The pacing is slow, letting the viewer soak in the profound connection these healers have with nature and their craft. Notably, there’s a genuine intimacy in the interviews, revealing the healers' philosophies and rituals. The practical effects, if you can call them that, come from the raw beauty of the surroundings, which is a character in itself. It’s a film that respects its subjects and invites quiet reflection.
