In 103 minutes the viewer experiences the mystical world of the African YORUBA religion as it is celebrated in Cuba. The gods are called on with RUMBA, SINGING and DANCING. The African songs accompanied by drumbeats are known in Cuba as RUMBA. RUMBA is an important element of the religious ceremonies. The lead singer calls on the gods ("Orishas"), and the choir fervently repeats the prayers. The drumming is done on the sacred drum, which may only be played by one person their whole life. This DVD is a unique experience. It shows ceremonies which ordinary tourists never get to see.
