Racionais MC's: From the Streets of São Paulo

Juliana Vicente's documentary follows Racionais MC's, the São Paulo rap group that became the voice of Brazil's peripheries from the late 1980s, from their beginnings in the city's poorest neighbourhoods to their status as a national institution.

The group's songs about police violence, racism and life on the margins changed Brazilian popular culture, and the film treats their story as part of the country's political history. It's essential for understanding Black Brazilian music and its fight to be heard.
