A journey to the family home. Another face inside the photograph. Changqi returns to a village hollowed by hunger and devotion. Beneath a solitary tree, deep within a cave, a god waits. A god that changes. A god that asks for sacrifice. Wooden plaques slick with dew. Ceremonial clothes abandoned in the corner. Empty jars, coarse cakes, a sharp bronze leaf, candle wax dripping over skin. The limits of the body, and the powers of the maddened mind. Desire, corrupting, sanctifying. Ashless Sacrifice is a grotesque procession through metamorphosis, ecstatic appetite, and the secret nature of the gods: Strange, sensual, and grim, the story of Lin Changqi and his cruel god will linger like blood beneath the tongue.
