Synopsis
They present themselves as "shamans", "medicine men" with mysterious healing powers. Some of them do not hesitate to take advantage of gullible Europeans to thrive on a juicy business where therapy, training, mysticism and traditional Amerindian culture mingle in a most dubious way. Our journalists investigated in France and Canada to unmask Quebec-born Marcel Grondin a.k.a Mushum, who pretends against all odds to belong to the Innu nation.
