Rio de Janeiro, dagli anni ’60 agli ’80. La favela di Cidade de Deus diventa il palcoscenico delle storie parallele di Buscapé e Dadinho. Entrambi tredicenni, sono però mossi da ambizioni diversissime: il primo vorrebbe diventare fotografo, il secondo il più temuto criminale della città. Se Buscapé trova molti ostacoli nella realizzazione dei propri sogni, Dadinho diventa rapidamente padrone del quartiere e del narcotraffico con lo pseudonimo di Zé Pequeno. La morte del suo braccio destro Bené e la violenza perpetrata ai danni della fidanzata del mite Galinha innescheranno una guerra tra bande dall’esito tragico.
