| Video Discription | The Afro-Brazilian Umbanda and Candomblé folk religions stem from the Yoruban religion brought to Brazil by the West African slaves in the 16th century. The beliefs and practices are combined with elements from Catholicism and South American Indigenous beliefs making this a truly unique Brazilian folk religion. The practice of "African cults," as they were prejudiciously labelled, was illegal in Brazil until 1889 - but despite the legal freedom of practice since then, the number of followers continues to dwindle - much competed by Roman Catholicism and Christian Protestantism. In this documentary, we get a unique insight into the complex belief system of the Umbanda religion; following the rituals and mediums on close hand while visiting the impressive and colourful festivals taking place each year. The documentary series “Disappearing World” was originally broadcasted between 1970-1975. As an anthropological landmark of its time, the series tells the story of traditional communities endangered by the modern world’s progressions. The series stands as a historical document of daily life in remote and threatened societies, such as the Cuiva, Embera and Panare Indians of Colombia, the nomadic Tuareg of the Sahara, the Kurdish Dervishes and the Meo of China.
