Barong comes very close

Barong is probably the most well known dance. It is also another story telling dance, narrating the fight between good and evil. This dance is the classic example of Balinese way of acting out mythology, resulting in myth and history being blended into one reality.
Here the Barong figure is carried three times around the temples compound and the onlookers try to touch it.

    Eine schöne Detailaufnahme aus diesem eindrucksvollen Tanz. Die Welt der Balinesen ist auf eine für mich zauberhafte (und für die Balinesen sehr ernsthafte) Weise mit Göttern erfüllt.
