520 |a Spirit possession, mediums dressed in black, blood sacrifices, ritual beer and snuff: these are elements of Shona religious ritual as depicted in this evocative film. It focuses on the traditional cult center of Dambatsoko and its leader, Muchatera Mujuru, who is the medium of Chaminuka, one of the most revered and powerful ancestor spirits of the Shona. Muchatera is seen leading several ceremonies including a spirit possession at the banya ritual house; prayers for peace at the mutoro prayer house; a blood sacrifice to placate the spirit of a wronged brother; and a commemorative ritual at the rushanga tree shrine. These ceremonies are accompanied by Mbira players including Muchatera's celebrated grandson, Ephat Mujuru.
