Music
driven story of young heroes rising from an urban ghetto
to popular recognition.
From
their impoverished surroundings, four boys from the
slums in Brazil dream of setting up a radio station
that will express their reality and music.
In
a short time, the radio gains a huge following and becomes
notorious for its upfront attitude and spontaneous language.
Soon the station reaches far beyond the extent of its
air waves, bringing our heroes into a close clash with
the authorities.
Angry,
fast, and young, with excellent hip hop soundtrack,
it has a finger on the pulse!
