On the Indonesian island of Sulawesi, the Toraja take their deceased relatives out of their graves every few years and take pictures with them.

On the Indonesian island of Sulawesi, the Toraja take their deceased relatives out of their graves every few years and take pictures with them.

The mummified bodies are cleaned, dressed in fresh clothes and after the ceremony are returned to the burial place until the next ceremony.

This is how the Toraja honor the memory of the deceased, and at the same time use this chilling ceremony as an opportunity to gather with the whole family.

We're quite fond of banter, but everything has its limits.
