Unsoul (Template:Lang-pt-BR) is a Brazilian supernatural drama web television series, written by Ana Paula Maia, and broadcast by Globoplay since October 21, 2020.

The series was shown at the Berlin International Film Festival, where it was acclaimed for its history and photography by viewers and various film experts.

The Brazilian production will be shown internationally through distribution by Sony Pictures Television in one of the partnerships with Grupo Globo.

Plot

The story begins with the disappearance of the young Halyna (Anna Melo) in 1988, in the fictional city of Brígida (Ukrainian: Бріжіда), founded by Ukrainian immigrants in the countryside of Southern Brazil.

At the time of the disappearance, the town celebrated Ivana-Kupala, a feast with pagan origins and linked to fertility rites that was incorporated later into the calendar of Orthodox Christians, and in fact is held at the turn of 6 to 7 July. The tragedy caused the feast to be banned from the city's calendar, and thirty years later, when tradition is resumed, mysterious events happen again.
