“Best buddies Acerola and Laranjinha, about to turn 18, discover things about their missing fathers’ pasts which will shatter their solid friendship, in the middle of a war between rival drug gangs from Rio’s favelas.” Honestly doesn’t even feel like a movie, but like I’m actually following these guys around in Brazil. Heavy but fascinating watch. Also recommend “City of God,” which is an absolute masterpiece. Rented on Prime.
