Direito de Sonhar

From the perspective of people who live in Complexo do Alemão, the largest favela in Rio de Janeiro, Direito de Sonhar reveals how the absence of the State in Brazil, violence, racism and difficult access to education and culture affect lives and dreams of children and young people and what alternatives they create to overcome these challenges, which reveals their fight for their rights as citizens. The documentary shows the difficult reality of Brazil's favelas, unknown to most of the world.
