In such unlikely settings, trance-like healing and animal offerings are practiced as they were back home. The documentary captures rare and dramatic footage of the Hmong buying and sacrificing a cow in rural Illinois to save a sick baby in a metropolitan hospital. It shows the attempts of a missionary to convert a traditional Hmong family. It also explores an unexplained phenomenon (SUNDS) in which young Hmong men have died in their sleep for no apparent medical cause."--distributer website. 538 $a DVD-R. 546 $a In English and Hmong with English subtitles. 650 0 $a Hmong (Asian people) $z United States. 650 0 $a Hmong (Asian people) $x Religion. 650 0 $a Shamans. 650 0 $a Shamanism $z United States. 655 0 $a Documentary videos. 700 1 $a Siegel, Taggart. $4 pro $4 pro 700 1 $a Conquergood, Lorne Dwight, $d 1949- $4 pro 710 2 $a Siegel Productions 710 2 $a Filmakers Library, inc. 939 $a 5882740 941 $a 1 945 $a dvv 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C1A9718A2B1011DEAA7E7608A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b NIU 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20090701080000.0Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
