Ómi Tútu to Olúfon
The Imperatriz Leopoldinense, current runner-up in the Rio Carnival, will take to Marquês de Sapucaí in 2025 the theme Ómi Tútu to Olúfon – Fresh water for the Lord of Ifón
, written by carnival designer Leandro Vieira. After almost 50 years, the school returns to the Afro-religious theme, exalting the mythology of the orishas.
The narrative will tell the journey of Oxalá to the kingdom of Oyó, where he visits Xangô, in a theme that promises to unite religiosity, tradition and cultural richness. The Queen of Ramos promises a grand parade, full of symbolism and references to the power of the orixás.
With an imposing look and an engaging samba, the Imperatriz bets on spirituality and African heritage to move the audience and shine on the avenue.
Excerpt from the Samba-Enredo:
Ofereça pra Exú… um ebó pra proteger
Penitência de Exú, não se deixa arrefecer
Ele rompe o silêncio com a sua gargalhada
É cancela fechada, é o fardo de dever...
