From the producers of the award-winning film ‘City of God’ comes a riveting, humour-filled yet emotionally powerful film. It’s the tale of two teenage friends living in the gritty heart of Rio, about to battle daunting odds in order to become men. We follow their journey as they try to come to terms with adulthood, fatherhood and the idea of a future in such a bleak and toughened cityscape.

Alive with the rhythms and flavours of Brazil, the reality of City of Men is intense and comes through in the filming which was done entirely on location in seven Favelas in Rio.
