“Winter rites, peyote rites. A creative documentary based on the texts of Antonin Artaud read by Jean Rouch and the words of the last shaman of peyote translated by Raymonde Carasco.” (Raymonde Carasco)

“You find paths, those that we filmed, Y-shaped, L-shaped, those in Ciguri 99, very white, shining in the morning sun (we filmed them in the afternoon). Soft underfoot, shaped by footsteps in the white stone, a furrow like a stream hollowed out by comings and goings, a rounded, soft, extraordinary shape. A sculpted carpet laid out for human use.” (Raymonde Carasco)
