divine horsemen of haiti

Maya Deren was an American avant-garde filmmaker of the 1940s and 1950s. In 1947 the Guggenheim grant enabled Deren to finance travel to Haiti to document and record the rituals of vodoo. She made three trips to the island. The following is her footage edited and compiled by Teiji and Cherel Ito as Divine Horsemen: The Living Gods of Haiti. It was released in 1981.
