City of God
Directed by Fernando Meirelles
In the slums of Rio, a trio of young friends steal whatever they can to get by. As the years pass, Li’l Zé becomes a feared gang leader with his best friend, Bené, always at his side, keeping him sane. Meanwhile, Rocket has no interest in the criminal life and is happy with his photography. But the City of God is a merciless place, and the violence of the two remaining rival gangs will force each of the trio to make fatal choices.
In the slums of Rio, the paths of a trio of kids diverge, as two lead a life of crime and the other embraces art.
