Notícias de uma Guerra Particular 5/6

All those who have seen Brazilian film "City of God" will feel illuminated to learn that this highly original documentary film was the inspiration for it. If a violent film like "City of God" was appreciated for being an outstanding fiction film, Notícias de uma Guerra Particular (News from a Personal War) would also be regarded highly as an honest visual document about everyday violence which takes it toll on the residents of Favelas in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The film is multidimensional and we get to hear many views of people from all walks of life. We hear what police, drug dealers, drug addicts and Favela residents have to say. There is hardly any blame game which takes place in this film as Katia Lund and João Moreira Salles do not take sides. They show us images which are true to themselves. These are some of the images which might shock us but they were shot in order to reveal the hidden truth behind abominable drug trade in Rio. An excellent documentary film for those people who appreciate Brazilian cinema and are aware of serious films like Pixote a lei do mas fraco, Ônibus 174 and Tropa de Elite.

Notícias de uma guerra particular, produzido no ano de 1997, dirigido por João Moreira Salles e Kátia Lund, é um retrato sobre o estado da violência urbana no Brasil. O documentário mostra o conflito social da capital do Rio de Janeiro conseqüências da situação econômica não apenas da cidade, mas do país inteiro através de entrevistas com policiais, moradores de uma das muitas favelas que cercam a cidade e participantes do narcotráfico.
