FAVELA RISING documents a man and a movement, a city divided and a favela (Brazilian squatter settlement) united. Haunted by the murders of his family and many of his friends, Anderson Sá is a former drug-trafficker who turns social revolutionary in Rio de Janeiro's most feared slum. Through hip-hop music, the rhythms of the street, and Afro-Brazilian dance he rallies his community to counteract the violent oppression enforced by teenage drug armies and sustained by corrupt police. At the dawn of liberation, just as collective mobility is overcoming all odds and Anderson's grassroots Afro Reggae movement is at the height of its success, a tragic accident threatens to silence the movement forever.

Your statistics on the racial demographics of Brazil is biased. Brazil has a racist colonial history of slavery like the US which stereotyped Black people as inferior. So naturally many Black Brazilians will identify as white or mixed. Brazil imported the highest number of African slaves of any of the colonial nations throughout the Americas and Caribbean. So go check your facts and stop downplaying the fact that Brazil has the largest Black population outside of continental Africa.
