Commissioned by Itau Cultural Institute, this work draws inspiration from rituals and celebrations of Candomble (African-Brazilian religion). Its rituals involve the possession of the initiated by Orishas (gods); music and dance are essential to induce the trance that allows the god to enter the possessed body. Shot with 2 Red cameras.
