Carlos, Tata and Ronaldo are three young drug dealers from the Favelas in Rio de Janeiro, who have the same dream.

They want to stop killing people, they want to stop dealing with drugs and they want to stop living with fear. They want to have a normal life.

The only chance they see in changing their lives is making music.

Baile Funk is the music of the Favelas. A music that has more influence for Rio de Janeiro then Bossa Nova or Samba. A Music that came from the heart of Rio – from the Favelas.
