O MISTÉRIO DA CARNE

In recent years, Pope Francis has permitted women to participate in the Catholic ritual of foot-washing. But when the girls around Camila and Giovana come up with something special to perform the ceremony, their secrets and silent desires are also unleashed. In O MISTÉRIO DA CARNE, Rafaela Camelo explores sexuality and the intense feelings of young people against the backdrop of religious iconography and ceremonies. Having been raised in a strict Catholic family herself, she explores family relationships, adolescence, and sexual awakening in her work.
