In 'Unternächte', Elena Helfrecht examines the magical period between the years in Bavaria, more commonly known as Raunächte, when the veil between the worlds grows thin, and the spirits descend into the mortal realm. Set against the upheavals of our time, she reads history as a cycle of growth and destruction, not unlike the turning of the seasons. Drawing on local traditions and family tales passed down through generations of women, Helfrecht sheds new light on ancient folklore to reflect on the innate human need to invent stories and rituals in times of crisis.
