'In Rio, you just get on with it. Rather than despair when the electricity goes down and the air chokes up, we dance, sing, beat the drum and the gods wake us from the nightmare. And then, if only for a few hours, everything seems possible again, and we're devilishly happy.' A city, writes Luiz Eduardo Soares, sheds its skin like a snake- none more so than Rio, whose reputation for hedonistic sensuality hides darkness, violence and corruption. Here, Soares, himself a carioca - Rio born and bred - takes us into deep into disparate worlds, from the favelas to the corridors of power. In telling the city's story through its people - criminals, police, activists, politicians and struggling migrant workers - Soares rips away its mask, revealing a kaleidoscope of joy, inequality, brutality and hope- Rio in all its seething, agonistic beauty.
