Among Balinese Hindus boys and girls, the tooth filing is one of the rites of passage from the child to the adult age. It has a deeply religious purpose. Seen here from behind, the kneeling down filee briefly meditates before the ceremony and the officiants are preparing themselves (Bali - Indonesia). Chez les garçons et filles Hindous Balinais, le limage des dents est l' un des rites de passage à l' âge adulte. Il a une profonde signification religieuse. Ici de dos avant l' opération, la jeune fille agenouillée prie brièvement tandis que les officiants se préparent.
