Sintonia

A fresh perspective of life in a Brazilian favela. It's interesting to see the cultural, religious and drugs underworld all connected.

This series started out great with interesting stories and characters. What ruins the series is all the religious nonsense. They should have made a much better path for "Rita". They clearly show that the church and priest is all about the money, but there is nothing more to it... "Rita" is portrayed as smart, but she still falls for the religious nonsense and that is just wrong

A contemporary view of São Paulo youth living in low-income communities where financial opportunities are scarce. The main characters are 3 slum clichés: a drug dealer, an evangelical and a "funkeiro" - singer of Brazilian funk music. The characters are likeable and the story is interesting.

Really great series about the life, dreams and problems of some friends in a Favela in São Paulo. Binge watched it in one evening.

Sintonia does a fair job in depicting life in the slums (favelas) of Brazil's largest city - São Paulo. The lives of a young rapper (funkeiro), evangelical and gangster are intertwined in a simple and predictable story. The sad reality is that not many paths exist for those in the favelas. Netflix has my praise for taking the favela to a global public, perhaps the world now know that those in the favelas are are only trying to live a life like anyone else.
