Deep-rooted in man, aggression, violence and its darker manifestation, war, have been part of his evolution since the dawn of time. Confronted with these demons, which remind him of his own finality, he invented rituals to dominate his fears and prepare for action. Present in societies the world over, the war dance has become part of social traditions, taking many forms and meanings. It is capable of elevating and transforming this energy into a positive force. This film incorporates knowledge of the past and the present into a singular virtual choreography, from prehistoric times to the present day, which merges dance, painting, the interpretation of the sacred, archival documents and the ideas of choreographers .
