Fans of hard-hitting Brazilian films such as CITY OF GOD should find much to admire in the similarly themed TV show CITY OF MEN. As two teenage boys grow up in a dangerous Rio de Janeiro slum, they encounter events that will change their lives forever, but they somehow manage to keep their heads and even inject a dash of humor as they enter into some of the darkest moments of their young lives. Acclaimed director Fernando Meirelles (THE CONSTANT GARDENER) is among the directors.
