That’s the ancient rite for the winter solstice celebrated on January 5th night, where “se brusa ła vecia” (the old woman is burned), that represents the past year leaving the place for the new one. (Someone thinks that's a remainder of the witch hunt, very unusual under the Venice’s republic, or it may come from the offering of human sacrifices in some very far away time). Families and communities summon to sing and dance and celebrate. According to the tradition, you can predict how the year will be for the crops by looking at the direction the smoke flies in.#music #metal #folk
