The film follows Maria Moura, founder of the Lavagem do Sambódromo (Sambadrome Washing) in Rio de Janeiro, a gesture that unites activism, Candomblé, and the strength of the samba dancers.
Between water, carnival, and tradition, the Sapucaí (Sambadrome) transforms into a territory of resistance and ancestry. After 13 years of listening and presence, Saullo Farias Vasconcelos's perspective becomes cinema—poetry and cultural affirmation in motion.
