They fear what we have to say. So we speak.
Known as Pixadores, the 'pixas' risk life and limb (you might have to close your eyes at some of the death-defying shots), to give their voice to a community that is increasingly ignored. Whether scaling skyscrapers, speeding trains, or in the volatile favelas, the eponymous graf can be spotted in (usually high) spots all over Sao Paolo.
"The only way to push things forward is to risk something," remarks one pixas, explaining why they go to such lengths to be seen and heard.
It takes less than five minutes to watch this beautifully made film. So, like, watch it!
"When you create something you give it life. You can't control what it does or where it goes."
