Summary This crowd pleaser produced by *City of God* director Fernando Meirelles and headlined by Brazilian screen superstar Wagner Moura takes us on a road trip through the São Paulo nightscape, from shiny new suburbs to shantytown slums, with Theo, a successful doctor in search of his run-away son. Official Selection at the **Sundance Film Festival**. Winner of the Audience Prize for Best Fictional Film at the **Rio de Janeiro Film Festival**. *"Crowd-pleasing...terrific lead performance from Wagner Moura...production design and cinematography are top notch." - Andrew Barker, **Variety*** *"Moura's unorthodox celebration of family values is full of delightful wrong turns, subtle performances and gently uplifting observations on random human kindness." - Stephen Dalton, **The Hollywood Reporter***
