VOODOO is the story of three women - Donahue, Clark and Spud
- who are working together on a mystery project. As they hammer, saw and
put together the pieces of a large figure, the sound of voodoo drums grows
louder in the background. Their work becomes more intense as they near
completion because, at the same time, they are piecing together - through
seemingly detached inner monologues - the frightening secret of the most
cryptic man in their lives.
Three interweaving stories form the pieces of a haunting puzzle. As
voodoo drums resonate, the women work together to construct what appears
to be a giant doll. Each awaits the arrival of the one man in her life
who introduced her to love, fear and blood rituals.
