Elite Squad-Music

There are more than 700 favelas in Rio de Janeiro ...all of them dominated by drug dealers armed to the teeth equipped with AR-15, AK-47, Uzi... In any other place those guns would be used for War... ... in Rio are the ariminals's tools a shot of 762 pass through a car like paper it's a joke to think that in a city like this... ... police would enter in a Morro to force the law cops have families too... ... cops are afraid to die too

This film is based on accounts by 12 officers and a psychiatuest in Rio de Janeiro's Police force. The footage with the officer's and the psychiatris's statements was destroyed.

That's why in this city... ... every policeman has to choose: or corrupts himself... ... or play dead... ... or go to war most people are terrified by a war ... and Major Oliveira was no exception Every friday he enters the Morro to get the "Arrego" the money that the corrupt cops chrge to let the drug traffic flow

the dealers live in a war too, and they also want to survive... ... why shooting? everything is negotiable But in that night there was a cop... ... who had nothing to do with any money was Captain Fabio... ... he was there, forced... ...shitting himself If Capitain Fabio wasn't enter the Morro too Neto and Matias would never play dead. ...or corrupt themselves They were straight

peace is a very fragile balance between the dealera weapons and police corruption honesty is not part of the game

Is a unstable equilibrium, that can fall with a gust of wind... ...in that Friday, it stormed BOPE's badge tells exactly what happen wen we enter a favela and our uniform is not blue... ... is black

BPOE existe because police couldn't handie some situationes ...in Rio it happens all the time

My name is Captain Nacimento I used to be the head of BOPE Alpha's team ... with so much time in that war and beginning to be tired of it
