The film is a biography of the spiritual medium Divaldo Franco. Born in the small town of Feira de Santana, in the countryside of Bahia, Divaldo experienced mediumship as of age 4. Concerned with what he saw, rejected by other children and repressed by his father, the boy didn’t have an easy childhood. At age 17, convinced that it was useless to ignore his gift and supported by his mother, Divaldo comes into contact with spiritism and moves to Salvador to study the doctrine. With the help of a spiritual guide, Joanna de Angelis, Divaldo overcomes the feelings of nostalgia for his family and loneliness in the big city and embraces his mission. A few years later, that strange boy from Feira de Santana became one of the most integral mediums of all time and relinquished his personal life to dedicate entirely to charity.
