Golgotha is the place where Jesus was crucified. The project tries to understand the different faces of evangelization in the country, trying to find the gaps in between the biblical and the tupiniquim, the Jesus green and yellow from the Brazilian Flag and the creative contradictions it brings. Contemporary Brazil brings this dual meaning of Golgotha: a territory where is a death machine, but also the place of sacrifice, resurrection and redefinition of meanings. A believer of the church Assembleia de Deus - Vitória em Cristo (Assembly of God - Victory in Christ) writes down as she wears a ring written "Jesus" during a worship service at the headquarter of the megachurch, at Penha, in the north Zone of Rio de Janeiro. The megachurch is run by Silas Malafaia, a conservative pastor and one of the biggest supporters of the Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro.
