Vor dem Schnee

Deutschland 2007 Kurz-Dokumentarfilm

Summary

Before the Snow

Ghost stories are part of the cultural heritage of the Khanty and Forest Nenets in Western Siberia. Eerie accounts based on personal experiences with the supernatural and the dead are narrated void of interpretation. Western civilization intrudes on these ancestral beliefs and dismisses them as paganism, but to Indigenous eyes, the beyond belongs to the sphere of this earth, the spirits, the devils, nature, humans. Beings high and low should not be disturbed.
