Yes, Pixote is a very hard movie about street boys. But if my
memory is good (I saw it when it came out) the street boys
gangs are not organised than in the City of God. It's more
about the errance of a young boy in the street (he met a
prostitue who has just aborted in toilets).

City
of God is not very far (subject/style...) from the famous
Pixote (A lei do mas fraco) from Hector Babenco (81)...very
much worth seeing too...
