Rhythms of Resistance 2013 Directed by Jason O'Hara

A look at the Pacifying Police Units (UPPs) in Rio de Janeiro through politicized speeches by artists from some locals communities. With music and performances thematizing social exclusion and police violence, these artists discuss the rhetoric of peace and question to what extent the arrival of the UPP does not represent an intensification of the criminalization of poverty.
