Dambai

Meeting people

 

Life perspectives of young people like Godwin (left side): Taking over the business from the parents - or leaving for dreams? Many dreams fail because families cannot afford the fees for Senior Secondary School. What will be the child's way? What Eric's? - Never heard a groove like this: The Presby church choir is led by a mason who also composes new songs. Videoclip available.

 

In Dambai traditional religion is still alive: Members and ritual objects. At the right: Cape of the fetish priest and holy tree for public dancing and worshipping. (See Abakam and Shama Kedzi for examples of the vanishing influence of traditional religion.)
