    • This ethnographic documentary explores Ukrainian folk healing as practiced today by babky (grannies) in villages in Western Ukraine. These are elderly women-usually deeply religious-who perform rituals such as vylyvaty visk, or the pouring forth of wax, to treat a variety of afflictions. Babky treat maladies that elude the expertise of local doctors, such as fear, curses, and the evil eye. In this video, healers demonstrate their craft and reflect on their lives as elders, healers, and women in Ukraine. Will the babky's traditions of folk healing end after the current generation of healers passes on? This documentary probes this question by including the views of urban youth, and by exploring the babky's strategies for passing on their prayers and rituals.
