The project draws inspiration from the roots of African culture, its rituals, music, stories, rhythms, colors, and omnipresent spirituality, combining indigenous natural religions and imported world religious systems. In this context, Charles Nomwendé Tiendrebéogo narrates the modern history of Africa, intertwined with bloodshed, genocide, corruption, and bloody power struggles.
The music and sound composition are the work of Elii Moretti, who created the music based on real sound recordings from the everyday reality of the city and nature in Burkina Faso.
STORY
When they were still alive on this earth, these spirits were very influential people, driven by excessive ambition. So what would be justice and how could they deserve eternal rest if everything that happens, everything that still harms living beings on earth and for which these spirits are responsible, is not corrected? From decision to action, from the present to the past, from life to death—to what musical rhythm will our souls dance in that world? During one ordinary night, the cemetery guard is forced to lend his body to these invisible beings, who must reverse their fate of eternal damnation and attempt to redeem themselves.
