"I really liked how the prisoners stories captivated me, even if some of them were rather silly. Everyone has exceptional acting and I never felt any cringe or uncomfort once. This movie shows the good, bad, and humane pieces of the prisoners… You can watch Carandiru on YouTube with Portugués audio "
