Bárbara Balaclava is a metanarrative based on existing stories in the work of Thiago Martins de Melo and read in the tarot. Cosmogonic, baroque, hybrid and cyclical, it tells the trajectory of an anonymous martyr, from the expropriation and massacre of her village and her death under police torture to her experience as an "enchanted" finding herself in a previous incarnation and culminating in her baptism in the heart of Pindorama.
