Reza Urbana: the craft of the healers in Salvador, Bahia

The web documentary Reza Urbana is an audiovisual section of the routine of some rezadeiras found in Salvador, and shows how important the propagation of the craft performed by them is for regional culture. This work aims to present the importance of prayers for popular culture and contribute to a discussion about the risk of the extinction of this craft in the capital of Bahia.
