Yemanjá - Wisdom from the African Heart of Brazil is a stunning documentary exploring the tragic history, contemporary social struggles and resilient culture of Candomblé, a uniquely Afro-Brazilian spirituality, worldview and lifestyle, a transformational legacy of Africans forced to Brazil in the trans-atlantic slave trade. The story is told through the voices of elder women leaders, keepers of the oral tradition, including the 109-year-old daughter of a former slave. Often called the religion of nature, Candomblé not only survived but is flourishing in Salvador da Bahia, Brazil’s first capital, while traditional African ways have largely vanished or gone underground in most of the Americas. |
