\u201cSimone is a transvestite who tends to a natural spring \u2013 Fonte da Miseric\u00f3rdia (the Fountain of Mercy) \u2013 as a sanctuary for Orisha worship. S\u00e9rgio is an evangelical pastor who fancies himself an envoy sent by God \u201cto save humanity.\u201d Simone and Sergio, or Sergio and Simone, are two identities of one person. In 2006, Virginia de Medeiros met Simone, who used to live at Ladeira da Montanha hill, one of Salvador city\u2019s most run-down areas. Nurturing an interest in the place\u2019s residents, the artist began documenting aspects of Simone\u2019s daily routine in video. About a month after the first filming session, Simone had a crack-induced seizure followed by a mystical delirium in which she believes she met God. After that moment, when she \u201cdied of an overdose,\u201d Simone readopted the name S\u00e9rgio, convinced she now had a religious mission to accomplish alongside Jesus. Sergio, then, tells the artist\u2019s camera about his story of transformation and new identity. Eight years later, in 2014, Medeiros gets in touch with Sergio again and learns that after a short-lived relapse, he became a pai de santo (Candombl\u00e9 priest) and established his own terreiro (Candombl\u00e9 worshipping ground), where he assumed both identities, Sergio and Simone. The footage reflects the complexity of this constant physical and spiritual transformation process, set against the backdrop of a city where two religions clash. It also suggests the difficulty in accommodating a different demand in a binary society which, through discrimination, demands that we be either one thing or another.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
