The ritual characterized throughout history for keeping itself distant from public sphere, however, in the case of Candombe do Açude, it has been required by artists and researchers to participate in documentaries, commercial recordings of audio, video and to present itself outside the context of the community, which has brought wider publicity to the ritual. The objective of the present paper is to observe the realization of the ritual in its original context, compare it to the ritual aired in the media, and to check possible transformations in its performance, as well as in its relation to the socio-political context.
