On the first of November in the cemeteries of the Sacatépequez region of Guatemala, the people are not sad for the dead. They communicate with the deceased in a unique and poetic way: using kites. The Guatemalans talk to their ancestors through strings and small pieces of colored paper, fluttering in the wind. Part of the "Rituals of the World" series.
Short enough to do it as a quick lesson and interesting enough to hold my students attention.
