The archipelago, 95% Muslim, retains a cultural originality specific to the diverse influences—Malagasy, African, European, and Arab—that have forged its identity and, over the centuries, constituted the different layers of a rich and complex history. Deeply attached to ancestral traditions, the Mahorais live their daily lives under the watchful eye of djinns and spirits. This documentary offers a dive into the heart of this diversity and these beliefs. It is also a journey through a breathtaking setting, that of the second largest lagoon on the planet.
