The movie ‘City of God‘ is right on the money.

Scaringly so.

There are no police here,

Only a Country within a Country with its own rules and self-government.

Gleaning fascinating insights on how Regent Park and Lawrence Heights redevelopment was completely out of touch with those most affected by big money development.

Will blog my thoughts before the Weekend’s out.

HiMY in Rio.
