It may look like a scene from a post apocalyptic zombie movie, but every three years Torajan islanders pay their respects to the dead in the Ma’neme festival, which is a celebration of life.

The ritual, which translates as ‘The Ceremony of Cleaning Corpses’, sees the dead exhumed, groomed and dressed in new clothes.
