another wonderful way to get a glimpse into the life of rio is via some of the remarkable documentaries that have been produced in recent years - shot on location throughout the city, some provide a direct connection to contemporary cariocas, their ideas, and vision about rio. in a city with significant social disparity between the haves and the have-nots, rio de janeiro plays host to a vast range of social interactions taking place all over the city - with 80 kilometers of lush, tropical beaches, used by many of rio's residents, many of these inequalities can be examined on its golden sands. faixa de areia (2007) is a documentary that explores these dynamics, presenting the social segmentation and diversity on the rio beaches, all the way from leme to pontal, and even through to the piscinăo de ramos. |
