Linha de Passe

Four brothers from a poor São Paulo family each fight to follow their dreams — one a motorcycle courier, one at a gas station, one desperate to make it as a footballer. Walter Salles and Daniela Thomas at their most humanistic. Football is the thread, but survival is the subject. São Paulo in all its brutal, beautiful complexity. Sandra Corveloni won Best Actress at Cannes for her portrayal of the mother holding it all together.
