THE QUEST FOR SOUND

The Quest for Sound15:00, Friday 29th June, Cosmo Rodewald

Director: Laetitia Merli

Year: 2005

Run time: 54'

Location/Ethnic group: Mongolia/ Tsaatan, French

Language: In Mongolian and French with English subtitles


This film concerns the initiation of Corine, who is French, by the Mongolian master shaman Enkhtuya, a reindeer herder, who lives in the Taiga. The film-maker traces the process intimately, from the making of the shamanic paraphernalia to the initiate’s experiences in modified states of consciousness. But this adventure is also the portrait of a woman and her relationship with her shaman teacher.

I would dearly love to buy a copy of this movie as I have been studying and documenting shamans in Mongolia since 2002. 
Could you please tell where I can buy a copy.
