Summary:In the Vanuatu Islands, some communities live in harmony with Nature and question magicians to calm down the spirits. Two men will bear witness to this fact. On the island of Tanna, Yehuk must capture a secret turtle with the help of magic stones. And on the island of Ambryn, Koran must seek the help of magic men for his fishing to become successful once again. Will the power of magic be sufficient? In a 52' documentary film, discover the magicians of Vanuatu and the two men who must appeal to them if they are to succeed.
