A MYSTICAL THRILLER DRAMA WITH CRITICISM OF RELIGION AND FEMINIST SUBTEXT

Raquel ven­tures on a new start with her father: the move to a small Brazilian town brings the reli­gious teen­ager new fri­ends who fami­lia­ri­ze her with the local church. But the deeper she stu­dies the Bible ver­ses in which women are sub­or­di­na­ted to men, the more doubts are rai­sed in her mind. Not ever­yo­ne in the con­gre­ga­ti­on likes it. When her body sud­den­ly shows stran­ge signs, events seem to esca­la­te. The mys­ti­cal thril­ler dra­ma explo­res Raquel’s pain­ful trau­ma, which is con­nec­ted with the vio­lent death of her mother, with the use of strong sound design, cri­ti­cism and femi­nism. (HA)
