In Togo, they are still nearly 500 to practice dancing on stilts. A practice stemming from traditional voodoo rites which has become a real job for some. Troupes have been formed across the country, they perform in Lomé, the capital, but also abroad, especially in Europe during festivals. Perched on stilts five meters above the ground, the dancers perform veritable acrobatic figures. RFI takes us to meet them, in the village of Datcha, where this tradition has its source.
