WHO KILLED PIXOTE?
(Brazil, 1996 120 min.)

WATCH CLIP

Based on the true story of Fernando Ramos da Silva, a boy from the slums who, at the age of 11, became famous as the star of Hector Babenco's film Pixote. His short-lived success as an actor led Fernando to confuse his own life with that of the character. In this case, life imitated art in the most dramatic manner possible. Fernando encountered abject poverty at all turns and saw little chance of becoming famous once again. So, much against his will, he found himself embroiled in a life of crime until 1987, when at the age of 19 his short, seemingly hopeless life was brought to a close by eight shots, fired at point-blank range. Also on 10/30.
