Synopsis
AFTER CITY OF GOD AND TROPA DE ELITE, A NEW GRITTY AND INTENSE TRIP TO THE BRAZILIAN CRIMINAL UNDERWORLD
Rio de Janeiro, 1997. 11 kidnappings happen every month. The population is terrorized. The Government and the Police are at a loss. That’s when they decide to go all in and team two enemies together to fight this crime epidemic: Mendonça, an incorruptible officer with over 100 kills and Santiago, a dirty cop known for extorting criminals. They take charge of the Anti-Kidnapping Division with their questionable methods. A powerful, corrupt and deadly machine will now turn against them.
