A spirit medium communicates with the gods on October 28, 2018, the first day of the week-long King Boat Festival in Donggang in southern Taiwan. During the tri-annual festival, one of Taiwan’s largest folk-religious festivals, gods are invited down to earth, celebrated for a week and asked to help rid the community of bad luck and disease for the coming three years.
