The Plot: Gangsters killing one another. But this is a no non-sense film, it is even touching at some point.
Set in the 60’s in a ghetto of Rio de Janeiro, the film brings you to the lives of those people living in the slum, to their violent world: young armed thuds smashing other people’s properties to steal and their younger siblings watching them like heroes as they do it.
Then these younger fellows grow up to be just like their older brothers, who at this time, are already long dead.
