What film is this? - Man takes photos of gang?

Question

It might be set in South America (not sure) and this young man is taking pictures of this gang and he sells the photos to a newspaper. I also think that the beginning of the film shows part of the ending.

I know it's vague but that's all I can remember =)

Answer 1

I think you're talking about "City of God" Seems like it from what you described. It's a 2002 Brazilian film, original title is "Cidade de Deus" You can click the source link below and see the images to see if it matches what you saw.

Answer 2
