Is City of God woke?

Film · 2002

No verdict has been entered on City of God yet.

In the poverty-stricken favelas of Rio de Janeiro in the 1970s, two young men choose different paths. Rocket is a budding photographer who documents the increasing drug-related violence of his neighborhood, while José “Zé” Pequeno is an ambitious drug dealer diving into a dangerous life of crime.

WOKEMDb scores media on two separate questions: how woke it is, and whether it is any good. Both are the plain average of every verdict that counts.
