Overview

For centuries in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, Bugis people have accepted gender diversity as implicitly written in La Galigo manuscript: they believe that humans consist of five genders, and 1 of them is calalai. A closer look is taken on the definition of femininity and masculinity. What are the dynamics of gender and spirituality? How do these dynamics define the everyday life of the Bugis people?
