Almost Brothers (Quase dois irmãos)

The film follows two friends—one a powerful politician and the other a drug lord—from the favelas of Rio de Janeiro in the 1950s to their time in prison in the turbulent 1970s to their new stations. While class restrictions should have made them enemies, their mutual love of music and quest for justice unites them. 2004, Brazil, color, 35mm, in Portuguese with English subtitles, 102 minutes.
