Ancestral Voices: Esoteric African Knowledge (PAFF 2012)
Documentary/UK/73min/2011
Director: Dalian Adofo & Verona Spence
An enlightening documentary that examines the significant correlations between beliefs in “mainstream” religions and African spiritual practices which are widely stigmatized under labels such as juju, obeah, voodoo, and witchcraft. The question is raised: why in light of the many similarities in fundamental beliefs are African spiritual systems viewed negatively whereas modern religions are not?
