Mongolian Shamanic Drumming Video

Lauren Knapp is an American videographer/photo journalist living in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. In partnership with the Vanishing Cultures Project, she is working on a video/photo project about music, urbanization and youth culture in this city of once-nomads. She recently produced a video profiling a female shaman named Enkhtoya.  Enkhtoya is considered to be one of the most powerful shamans in Mongolia and graciously allowed Lauren to film an entire ceremony.
