Dedari

In Bali, Indonesia, the ancient ritual of Sangyan Dudari is performed as a powerful form of exorcism. Two premenstrual girls become possessed by the celestial maiden spirit Dudari, dancing continuously to drive away evil.

This animated film is based on documentary footage of the actual ritual, capturing the haunting beauty and spiritual intensity of the ceremony. The girls' trance-like movements blur the line between the human and the divine, as the spirit takes control of their bodies.
