Summary:

On the island of Bali, the link between man and God, conscious and unconscious, is acted out in elaborate ceremonies and dramatic ritual performances such as the self-stabbing trance of Barong-Rangda and the Ketjak trance. Filmed in remote villages of Bali, this film is an authentic picture of a culture, as yet untouched by the West, which has developed this extraordinary means of exorcising violence to preserve "the spirit of cooperation."
