DANSE DES DÉMONS
Read moreThis festival of medieval origin comes from a still primitive Christianity and evokes an archaic struggle between good and evil, a very Manichean concept. Villagers disguised as demons knock on doors, waving chains. Guided by death, they try to capture the souls of the living. In the afternoon, the situation changes: it is the meeting between Christ, the Madonna and the Angels who save Christ from the devils. It takes place in Prizzi, a small medieval village near Corleone, in the hinterland of Palermo.
