Thursday, November 7, 2013 at 4:30 pm the nowledge and Freedom Foundation (FOKAL) will host in its multipurpose room the screening of movie documentary "Konesans vodou" directed by Lys Ambroise and Edwige Balutansky on Haitian voodoo. The screening will be followed by a discussion with the filmmakers and some of the players in the movie.

The movie documentary "Konesans voodoo" condenses hours of conversations with tradition bearers. You will not meet all but Max, Euvonie, Erol, Rachel, Ginette, Jessie, Eddy, the servants of lakous, will be happy to share a moment with you.

When the Support Program for Strengthening of Culture and Art for Economic and Social Development of Haiti (ARCADE) has launched a call for proposals for projects to protect the intangible and tangible heritage, Lys Ambroise and Edwige Balutansky foresaw the possibility to realize their old dream : that to collect evidence on the testimonials on the talk, music and Haitian traditions.
