Barber Shop Brazil talks about the current state of the favela’s and of the common man’s fear, not of dealers, but of the police. This is not a film about corruption, but about the life of ordinary teenagers in one of Brazil's most populous cities.
The story plays in the outer skirts of Rio, in the Favela Jacarezinho. Barber Pedro rents the chairs in his barber shop to teenagers, but only if they stop getting involved in crime. Not only eager to learn a profession, but the teenagers of Salao Faria have also even developed a very specific haircut: the Jaca Haircut.
We meet 6 populations in transition via the microcosm of the local barbershop. In every episode, a population finds itself on the verge of change and a barber plays his role. As opinion maker, as confessor, as story collector, as society barometer. Gradually, Barber Shop measures the state of our world, offering dialogue and human resilience as a hopeful perspective for the future.

As a Brazilian I can say, when he said "this is the olympic city" that was not a joke. The government spent tons of money for the futebol's infra but the city itself and its people rarely will benefit from that in a lifetime. I know, Rio is not the only city facing such issues and yes I know this documentary was highly focused on this (awesome) barber and Rio's community is WAY bigger than that, I know, but still, so lame! This man is doing more for his community than lots of other politicians. Congratulation to whoever did this documentary, better than some big TV channels we have here. +1 sub

What a fantastic documentary! I was on holiday in Brazil for 4 months, both in Rio and Sao Paulo. I got to experience everything that is possible to experience, and I just have to say that it is as sad as it gets. The streets, the drugs, the bandits, the beggars, prostitutes.. so sad to see all that because Brazil is a beautiful country with a lot of potential. I went through a hard period before I visited the country, and thank God I did, it made a big impression on me. There were periods where I feared for my life, because I am a "gringo" in their eyes even though I am just an ordinary foreigner. I never felt safe even though the police were there anyway, it was just extra fear.. I miss coxinha and pastel, seriously one of the best things I've eaten in my life.
