- DanBC 12y agoThe TV series "City of Men" is also very very good. My boxset version had an eye-opening documentary about polici g the favela. http://imdb.com/title/tt0364801/ http://imdb.com/title/tt0364801/

- Giulalbez 12y agoAt least in Brazil , it doesn't bring a good feeling, because of "Scuderie Detetive Le Cocq"[1] , a secret killing organization formed by policeman, commonly referred as "Death Squads". They kill poor people for fun. Their emblem was a skull. [1] http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuderie_Detetive_Le_Cocq http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuderie_Detetive_Le_Cocq
- elsurudo 12y agoCity of God (Cicade de Deus) is a great movie about this, too.
