"In this scrupulously non-interpretative yet evocative ethnographic film, venerable but unmistakably contemporary storytellers recount for the camera and their listeners the founding myths of Malagasy culture - the creation of man and woman, the origin of rice cultivation, the reason for animal sacrifice.

The tales flow into and out of shots of the Malagasy life which spawned them and which they in turn explain - storms, brush fires, herding, the unique practice of exhuming or "turning the dead""
