Description

Student production featuring interviews with two followers of the Wicca religion. After opening point-of-view shots of a journey through a wood, Deb and "Amy" talk about how they became Wiccans and debunk some of the popular myths about witches. Deb describes the origins of the religion, and the symbols, rituals and festivals associated with it. Ends with Deb practising her faith at home by chanting a spell.
