Meet Sao Paulo's Own Living 'Victorian Doll'

Description

If you're walking the streets of Brazil's Sao Paolo, you might catch a glimpse of one young lady that will take you back in time. 22-year-old Medora Ruiz has a passion for Victorian dolls, but she's taken it to another level, spending tens of thousands of dollars on clothing that makes her a living image of her favorite dolls. People can't help but to stare as she walks through the streets, almost as if she's walked right off the pages of a history book.

  • Living on the street in Sao Paulo

    Sao Paulo, Feb 17 (EFE).- Djalma Salles is 24 years old. An orphan and native of the impoverished northeastern state of Bahia, he moved to Sao Paulo in 2011 in search of work but soon found himself living on the street in Brazil’s wealthiest city.(CAMERA: Carla Samon Ros and Fernando Bizerra) IMAGES: FOOTAGE OF HOMELESS PEOPLE IN SAO PAULO AND SOUNDBITES BY DJALMA SALLES, PAULO ALBUQUERQUE, FATHER SIMONE, AND RICARDO GARCIA.TRANSLATION:Djalma Salles: "On the street, my life was very bad. I suffered from hunger, thirst, colds, I had (unmet) needs, I got showered in the rain and I got ill more often. Sometimes I felt a little embarrassed, humiliated."Paulo Albuquerque: "It wasn't a bad life, honestly. I worked, I had my house, I paid rent. It wasn't bad. But everything is fine when you work, when you don't have work anymore, things start to go wrong""I did not (have a house) here. When I arrived, I came directly to look for shelters"Father Simone: "Nowadays, we have also displaced people, people who have already been in various parts of the country, who are looking for work, maybe they left home in search of something for their families but then they did not succeed and did not come back home. I mean, we have many different situations""In the family, in the faculty, in the working world, there is a lot of indifference. This hurts and not everyone is strong because many do not know how to react and take refuge in extreme situations"Ricardo Garcia: "The street is cruel. It gives you and takes away form you, but sometimes it offers you a way out. You love and fight in the street. Those who love us are hated. The street belongs to the strong, the street belongs to death.""Look, it was also because I did not have the means. I have already traveled a lot, so I am much more used to sleeping outdoors. I decided to stay here, I stayed and I ended up settling here. At first, I had no shelter, then I got one and now I'm a little better"
