Iaô (1976)

Sobre o filme

A film that documents the initiation process into the cult of the Orixás, powerful entities that regulate cosmic, social, and individual phenomena. This process transforms the Abiãs into Iaôs. Made in Bahia, in a typical terreiro that preserves the traditions of the Gege-Nagô nation, the film highlights the integrating and cultural resistance role that the cult assumes in this community.
