A raw reality of the brazilian suburbs

Rating: 10/10 (18 September 2002)

Everybody should see this movie. It shows the "favela" reality in a way never explored before. And also give us a feeling of guilt, a throat-closing feeling every time you see a 6-year-old child handing a gun.
In one scene, it is shocking to hear a child complaining about being called a child. "I drink, smoke and snort cocaine." It sounds like all the innocence have gone.
Watch it. It is much more useful than read these lines.
