Caretos de Podence - Portugal
Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO
Breaking the long silences of each winter, the Careto is allowed to do anything during these days as he takes on a dual personality. When wearing the costume, the individual becomes mysterious and his behavior changes completely, becoming possessed by a transcendental energy. There is something magical and supernatural hidden in this festive ritual.
