with the cosmic powers through invocation, offerings, song and dance.
The Voudoun pantheon of deities, or loa, is witnessed as being living
gods and goddesses, actually taking possession of their devotees. The
soundtrack conveys the incantatory power of the ritual drumming and
singing.

of rapture that seized her, and transported her beyond the bounds of
any art she had ever known."

— Joseph Campbell
