💀 Were you familiar with the cult of San La Muerte?
In Wilde, in the southern part of Greater Buenos Aires, there's a shrine where hundreds of people come to venerate him, make requests, and give thanks. 🙏 But a deeply ingrained myth also circulates around this figure: that he's the "saint of criminals."
To find out what's true behind this reputation, I visited one of his shrines and spoke with people who are part of this cult. 👀 Who are the people who venerate San La Muerte? Why is he associated with the world of crime? And what do his own believers say about this association?
In this video, we tour the shrine and learn more about a devotion that sparks as much curiosity as it does questions. 🕯️
