Review of Favela Rising (2005) by Simon D — 10 Sep 2016
If you ever wondered how real City of God is, then wonder no more. This documentary follows the formation and success of a favela based community drumming workshop that grew into a famous band - Afroreggae.
The objective of the band was to give the street urchins an alternative to becoming drug-runners and gang members. Very brave people making a difference; very inspiring.
