About The Film
Muchatera Mujuru was the leader of one of the last remaining traditional cult centres in Shona country. It shows him as a spiritual man, concerned with his waning authority in a changing Rhodesia (as it was then). Several aspects of the life of his adherents at Dambatsoko are seen, including ceremonies with mbira players in the big banya ritual house, at the mutoro hut, the rushanga shrine and at a sacrifice, as well as iron forging and other daily activities. Filmed at the Centre near St. Bede's school, South of Rusape, Zimbabwe.
