What a moocher!
Do you think
my dad is a banker?
Ah, Patrcia.
My name is Letcia.
Patrcia, the little rich girl.
This retard has a sense of humor.
Put the sandwich down!
Put it down!
Can I have another one?
Go! Go! Go!
Congratulations, man.
Hold on!
What?
Wait!
Her blue eyes
were so beautiful, so...
deep.
What... what did she
want to tell me?
Maybe she wanted to tell you
that drugs are no good.
What's your name again?
Paulo.
Yes, you do look like
a Paulo to me.
This place here
reminds me of my childhood,
when I flew a kite
and played soccer.
Did you use to live here?
No. I lived in a place
similar to this one.
Now my father lives
in Braslia, it's different.
- And why are you so happy?
- Why?
Love is beautiful
So beautiful
Nothing else can be
that beautiful
NEIGHBORS ASSOCIATION
Do you go to school
every day?
- More or less.
- More or less.
- What about soccer?
- It's just fine!
You must go to school, man.
And why don't you
Because I'm lazy!
Do you help
your parents at home?
Yes, I do.
Do you help your mom
or your dad?
- My mom.
- How do you help her?
I help her pick up bottles
and sell them.
Go, Diogo!
Go for it!
Kick the ball!
Go, Diogo!
Go!
This computer
is a piece of sh*t.
The questions are not
straightforward,
Give me an example.
We have no information
on the families.
But I told you that first
I wanted to find out
the children's
life expectancy.
This is not literature.
This is reality!
If we don't know
their family reality,
how can we get to know
the children?
Pay attention.
The child depends
on the family, right?
- Of course!
- So
the problem isn't
the child nor the family,
but the context
where they live in,
and what they get
from our country.
Without that, our project
will turn into a novel.
A novel?
Little Rita, you say nice things
but you only think of politics.
Little Len, you speak very smoothly
but you are extremely stubborn.
- What?
- This is about politics.
- I know it is.
- Everything is about...
Excuse me.
I don't think everything
is about politics.
There is no politics
in love, in feelings,
in Nature, in art...
Listen, Letcia,
if I were you,
I'd put this sentimentalism,
this love thing, aside,
even Nature, if you please.
When you mix art with politics,
it is no longer art,
because it sells an idea,
it becomes commercial.
- Can I give my opinion?
- No, you can't.
- It's forbidden to forbid.
- I forbade you to touch my PC.
- Let's eat!
- All right. Let's go!
- Paulo finally had a good idea.
- A great idea!
- Pasta.
- It's the only thing you have here.
Little Rita from Minas,
I know why you are
You must hate soccer.
Little Paulo from So Paulo.
You are wrong twice.
The research is going
really well,
and my soccer team
is Atltico Mineiro.
I bet yours is Corinthians.
You are completely wrong!
I was born to suffer.
My team here is Botafogo
and, in So Paulo,
I'm So Paulo.
Paulo!
Paulo!
Yes, Mariana.
What is it, sweetie?
Can you help me with Math?
I don't understand anything.
I can't today.
What about tomorrow?
All right.
- Hi, how are you?
- Fine.
- Hello, Paulo.
- I can help you.
- Hi, how are you?
- Fine.
Mariana, get down.
You're disturbing them.
No, she isn't.
- So I see you tomorrow.
- All right.
See you. Mom, if I don't a
good grade, please, don't complain.
This damn chemotherapy!
Stop! Right there!
It hurts so bad!
I hate this treatment!
It will go away.
I'm dying for a cigarette!
There are some in the drawer.
Get me one.
Are you crazy?
If you smoke, you'll feel worse.
- You have a fever.
- So what?
Will it give me lung cancer?
What difference does it
make at this point?
- You shouldn't.
- Get it for me!
It's in the drawer.
Hurry!
There are no more cigarettes.
And now this!
If it weren't for my children,
I'd rather be dead.
Listen to me.
I have some medicine here...
No medicine!
It's different.
You'll feel better.
But this is between you and I.
they'll kick me out.
How chic!
Come.
If only I could go home...
What about your children?
The younger one, Little Cacau,
has a really bad temper!
He only does what he wants,
but he doesn't get in trouble.
He's a very responsible kid.
- How old is he?
- Thirteen.
I can't, I'm working.
Cinzio is 22.
He's a really good person.
But he's always having
problems with the police
because he's a street vendor.
- What does he sell?
- Watches, radios, perfume...
He treats me like a girlfriend.
Don't be snooty!
But he's a nice-looking black guy;
I saw his photo.
When he brought me here,
he promised to stop fighting.
Did he?
Yes, he did.
because he hasn't
shown up lately.
You know how easily
kids out on the street
get in the trouble.
I'd like to hear
from my boys.
all the time!
Tell me the truth.
Am I going to die
of this blood problem?
Yes or no?
Life was never easy for me,
but I always managed to get along.
I had a job, a home,
a samba school.
Let me tell you something.
Go ahead.
I was a flag bearer,
can you believe it?
Of course I can.
- Let me tell you something.
- Sure.
When I first saw you,
I said to myself,
"Damn! I missed
this hot black girl!"
Whenever I go out,
because he's already 15.
So he helps you with that.
Yes, he's the one
who helps me.
Besides that,
he goes to school...
Yes, he studies at night
because he can't go
to day school at his age.
So I have to make him do
something during the day.
Does he play soccer
during the day?
On the weekends.
On Saturdays and Sundays,
he plays soccer
the whole day long.
And besides this job,
do you do anything else?
I'm a cleaning lady
and a laundress
And do you follow closely
his schoolwork?
- Yes, I do. I have to.
- Why?
To make sure he really
goes to school.
I'm not saying it's useless,
but it doesn't solve
the problem.
This is only
a palliative project.
The government should create
a more consistent project.
All right, pretty baby!
So we go home, watch TV
with our feet up, drinking beer,
the government does its job
while we do nothing!
If I'm pretty or not
has nothing to do with it.
Don't change the subject!
If a drug dealer offers
one pair of sneakers,
one T-shirt,
a couple of bucks, whatever,
to any of those kids,
they run to him!
Not everyone wants
to be a thief,
not everyone can be a thief,
do you know why?
- Why?
- Not everyone wants to die young.
- Do you know why?
- Say it!
Because there are too many
beautiful things in the world.
Mr. Z!
- Why?
You can see here the 5 principles
