Read MoreCollapse
Na ilha de Itaparica, Bahia, uma comunidade de descendentes Nagô recria há 200 anos os costumes e valores de antepassados africanos e brasileiros. Vive da pesca e da colheita de frutas em um espaço que está sendo ocupado pela indústria imobiliária e pelo turismo. Cultua os Egun, os ancestrais, que se materializam sob tiras de pano no grande festival anual de Baba Olukotun. Os homens de maior destaque são os Ojé, sacerdotes que detêm o segredo da sociedade Egungun, o poder de invocar os mortos e conduzí-los no mundo dos vivos. A idade avançada do chefe da comunidade e do culto, Alagbá Antonio Daniel de Paula, 108 anos, ocasiona a disputa pela sucessão entre seu filho Cosme e outro Ojé qualificado, Domingos.
