"Cidade de Deus, the City of God, is one of Rio's most notorious slums. Yet it is also a place where samba rocks till dawn, where the women are the most beautiful on earth, and where one young man wants to escape his background and become a photographer. City of God is an epic about gang life in Rio's favelas, based on years of research and Paulo Lins's firsthand experience growing up in Cidade de Deus."--BOOK JACKET.
