Over the Forest

Hortence has been pregnant four times in her life and she is a mother of seven children. She takes good care of all of them, but four of them are wooden statuettes. According to voodoo, which counts as an official religion in Benin, twins dispose of a strange mystical power, which bestows on them almost a divine status. “Twins are reincarnation of the gods on Earth. They come into the world with an inexplicable mystical force.”
