the article analyzes some transformations in the traditional festival of the holy spirit held in s？o luiz do paraitinga, a small town in the state of s？o paulo, brazil. in january 2010, a violent flood destroyed part of its built cultural heritage. that loss lowered the population’s self-esteem and many religious and cultural-policy agencies emerged in the process of recovery. through a phenomenological approach, the article describes and analyzes the dynamics of such agencies in that year’s festival of the holy spirit, showing the identity flows that cut across the fields of religion and culture, and their overlapping in the production of the event.
