content: Edited film: the Goli is a mask performance made up of three or four different pairs of masks. The two masks in each pair try to surpass each other in dancing. The musicians accompany their songs with hot rhythms of the rattle calabash. Although the young Baule learned the Goli from a neighboring tribe, it later became their most important mask performance.
