Cidade de Deus

The City of God is the most dangerous favela in Rio de Janeiro, and it is here that three children are growing up: Rocket, Little Fish, and Benny. At first, they just watch as other teenagers rob motels and small shops, but the cycle of violence draws them in too. Fish is now Little Z, the main drug dealer and the terror of the entire neighborhood. Benny is his best friend and right-hand man, but he is burdened by the criminal lifestyle. And only Rocket manages to stay out of it. He dreams of becoming a photographer and becomes a witness and collector of chronicles of gangster showdowns that drown the City of God in blood.
