0.0••17 min

Overview

Through her Cowries by Ayankola Ayanwuyi is a Yoruba documentary on Eerindinlogun, also called Dilogun in Brazil. Eerindinlogun is a Yoruba system of sixteen-cowrie divination that carries centuries of wisdom, story, and generative power. This film journeys with Chief Mrs Alice Oyeronke, an elder custodian and practitioner from Ogbomoso as she opens her pouch to reveal how the system works, and what birthed the practice.
