They were the first to engage in the armed uprising, mobilizing their ancestral spirits, the Irãs - the natural land-owners to whom they pay reverence - into the guerilla. Still today, every gesture of the rice cycle - from plowing to harvesting - is haunted by memories of the war. A trauma that is also inscribed in their present- day rituals, bodies, landscapes, and techno music. In the war's aftermath, a group of soldiers got possessed by a messianic vision, "The Shadow", that gave them the power to foresee the future and heal their communities with bush plants through talismanic writings.
