Pretty ironic, considering we talk about a favela. A favela is a very poor place, but at the same time, very powerfull. Brasilian's favelas are one of the most dangerous places in southamerica, where drougs and guns are the usual trade article for leaving.

In this mark is where the story develops, following the life a boy that grows and learns the ways of surviving what's closer to hell, than heaven. The story is fantastic. It's really interesting, the script is perfect, so the acting. The direction, the way of was shot and the photo are techincally flawless.

City of God is far from being heavenly. Probably with Schindler's list, the best movie that the continent gave to world in the past 20 years.
