Casa do Menor, Brazil

Backstage shots from my documentary “Casa do Menor: The Other Face of Brazil”, which focused on the protests on the streets of Brazil in the summer of 2013. The documentary (aired on the Discovery Networks) featured the stories of abused and marginalized youth in the suburbs of Rio de Janeiro and Fortaleza. It was shot with the support of the Brazilian NGO Casa do Menor, which cares for 2000 children per year, many of whom suffer from drug addiction and are coerced into prostitution.
