"In the slums of Rio, two kids' paths diverge as one struggles to become a photographer and the other a kingpin." - IMDB

 

" 'City of God' churns with furious energy as it plunges into the story of the slum gangs of Rio de Janeiro. Breathtaking and terrifying, urgently involved with its characters, it announces a new director of great gifts and passions: Fernando Meirelles." - Roger Ebert
