Waterfall

During my entire childhood I went to my grandmother's house in the the countryside, such a really poor place called "Cachoeira de Almas" which means waterfall of souls . There was aways this old lady called Silvinha my grandmother's niece who helped her doing the vegetable garden and cooking. As I grew up, I started to get to know about Silvinha's history and who she really was. This series was shoot in a day that she decided to remember and tell me about her past. A lot of pain and proud about the memories. After many year she dressed up as she used to dress, put make up as she as used to do and pose as she use to pose during the days that she was one of the most beautiful drag queens.
