One day I discovered ‘Central Do Brazil’, a wonderful film about a child who goes on a journey to find his father, going from village to village in Bahia, Brazil. Since then, I had only one idea in mind: I wanted to discover one of these villages. To reveal, I hope, the beauty of it with my camera and to understand how the people live there. That’s how I met, among other amazing people, Madalena Lidia Guimaroes (photo 7) She is 75 years old and has been working in the field for 40 years. When I asked her to take her portrait, she rushed home, returned with this bucket full of her harvest and posed proudly…Here are a few pictures of Barra do choça.
