Madagascar is a paradise that is home to an ecosystem full of pharmacological treasures. In a country shaped by ancestor worship, medicine and treatment is a complex interaction between spirits and botanicals.

With the help of the spirits, she invokes trances and uses the treasures of nature to heal her patients.
