The shocking film that inspired Spike Lee, Harmony Korine and the Safdie brothers
AVAILABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME ON BLU-RAY
A A gang of kids left to fend for themselves roam the streets of São Paulo. When the police organize a raid, Pixote and his friends are incarcerated in a reform center. But the first night turns out to be even more nightmarish than the street itself. Drugs, fights, even cold-blooded murder are now part of his daily life ...
A realistic and dramatic portrait of a youth without a future who finds refuge in drugs and delinquency, Pixote, the law of the weakest is a moving work, without voyeurism or puritanical concessions. A major influence on the moving City of God (2003), the shocking film by Héctor Babenco ( Kiss of the Spider Woman ) has also left its mark on many filmmakers, first and foremost Spike Lee, Harmony Korine and the Safdie brothers. Magnificently interpreted by the young non-professional actor Fernando Ramos da Silva, Pixote, the law of the weakest is to be discovered for the first time on Blu-ray™ in its new 4K restoration.
