MOULAY HASSAN, LORD OF THE COBRAS
1x26'
Synopsis
Moulay Hassan is an Assaoua : a snake charmer in the Moroccan Sahara. An ancient practice which thrives on danger : capturing cobras barehanded and drawing on the snake's strength to increase their own power and healing capacity.This colourful and sometimes incredible portrait shows this extraordinary life from hunting snakes in the desert to a trance-induced exorcism.
