Welcome to the world's most notorious slum: Rio de Janeiro's 'City of God.' A place where combat photographers fear to tread, where Police rarely go, and residents are lucky if they live to the age of 20. This is the true story of a young man who grew up on these streets and whose ambition as a photographer is our window in and ultimately may be his only way out. [Original Release 2002] (Miramax)

A fantastic piece of cinema about violence and film. Besides being perfectly executed, its focus on Brazilian economic classes gives the viewer into the world of the Brazilian slums.
