O Kimbanda Kambia

1979 • Directed by

Ruy Duarte de Carvalho

Two meetings in 1978 with Kimbanda Kambia, a traditional healer in rural southern Angola. Kimbanda shows the place where he treats and prepares medicines, the women who help him with these preparations, and talks about his practice - how he treats cases of madness, epilepsy, spirit and witchcraft possession.
