It started with the desire to do something around the Candomblé traditions. Not filming a candomblé ritual, but organizing something else, in the space of candomblé - in this case, in the beautiful terreiro XAMBA. I was in Recife, in the north east of Brazil, staying at Alessandra's place. We decided to bring a lot of her musical friends to perform and improvise an hour of religous songs. Here is the result of our own ritual.

Não me canso de ver essa beleza que é a cultura afro-descendente no Brasil; o belo rosto português da Alessandra revela uma brasilidade maravilhosa fundida com sua voz profunda e encantadora
