    • Synopsis
    • Following in the stylistic footsteps of Goodfellas and The Godfather, Boca is the true story of one of Brazil's most ruthless mobsters, Hiroito Joanides. Accused of viciously murdering his father during his early years, Hiroito abandons his home for a life of crime in the underworld of Boca do Lixo.
      Working from the shadows and backrooms of nightclubs, Hiroito controls strip bars, organizes drug deals and bribes crooked police officers to help his business stay on top. But as his drug addiction takes over, he loses the tight grip he once held on those around him, eventually leading to his downfall and inevitable arrest.
