Exclusive: City of Men Director Talks to IGN

Back in 2003 City of God came from nowhere to wow critics and audiences alike with its stunning dissection of life in Rio's crime-strewn slums. Now director Fernando Meirelles - this time as producer - returns to the favelas once more for its long delayed follow-up City of Men, which is out in the UK on Friday. For the follow-up - which this time around examines a pair of friends caught between two warring drug barons - Mereilles handed the directorial megaphone over to long-time collaborator Paolo Morelli, and we caught up with him to ask him what we can expect from the film.
