My boyfriend and I saw it at a lil independent theatre. I was soooo impressed. It was so raw and the way the stories were combined. Also, it was so relatable...It takes place in Brazil but is definitely applicable. I actually just read a really good Q&A article in Planet Mag. The director talks about making the movie and why he decided to use real people instead of actors and the experience of shooting in "City of GOD". This is definitely a must see. The director has some other projects coming up that I am interested in too. He talks about why he refuses to go Hollywood and all the attention that is being paid to Brazilian filmakers and projects. If you can, pick up the water edition of Planet Mag.
