Muuuuuiito bom
Um filme que retrata bem os dois lados da moeda, os dos policiais (lei) e os dos civis (população)
sem palavras pra essa obra de arte, já assisti umas 100x, amo amo amo
Lanzada en el 2007, cuenta la cruda realidad que se vive en las fuerzas especiales (BOPE), en Brasil azotada por la violencia en las favelas, muy buena!!! Imperdible 💎
