Semah
by Berna Güzel- Synopsis:
- The Semah is an Alevite ritual dance that was banned for a long time in Turkey. It is inspired by the movement of the moon, the sun and the planets, and also imitates the flight of the common crane, a bird which is sacred to the Alevites, symbolising bread, liberty, equality, community and blessings.
