Paulo Vladimir Brichta was born in
Diamantina, Minas Gerais but despite being born in
Minas Gerais, he considers himself "an authentic
Bahian", since he moved with his family to
Bahia state at the age of four, after spending a season in
Germany, where his father, Arno Brichta, has a PhD in geology. He loved the scenarios produced in the German school, and back to
Salvador, Bahia, he enrolled in a school in the Bahia capital at the age of six, where he began to be part of the amateur theater group of the experimental school Hilda Figueiredo. == Personal life ==
