SYNOPSIS:
Cidade de Deus (City of God) is a housing project built in the 1960's that--in the early 80's-
became one of the most dangerous places in Rio de Janeiro. The tale tells the stories of many
characters whose lives sometimes intersect. However, all is seen through the eyes of a singular
narrator: Buscapé, a poor black youth too frail and scared to become an outlaw but also too
smart to be content with underpaid, menial jobs. He grows up in a very violent environment.
The odds are all against him. But Buscapé soon discovers that he can see reality differently
than others. His redemption is that he's been given an artist's point of view as a keen-eyed
photographer. As Buscapé is not the real protagonist of the film--only the narrator--he is not
the one who makes the decisions that will determine the sequence of events. Nevertheless, not
only his life is attached to what happens in the story, but it is also through Buscapé's
perspective of life that one can understand the complicated layers and humanity of a world,
apparently condemned to endless violence
