Over a day, Giulia Grossmann follows the Huichols, one of Mexico’s most ancient Indian ethnic groups, in search of the peyote they use to reconnect with divinity. In the night, the bodies unwind around the fire. Under the effect of this hallucinogenic drug, the celebrants decide which sacrifice will take place at dawn. The pilgrimage can then resume.
