A piercing four-part docuseries exploring the rise of Brazil’s largest crime organization, Primeiro Comando da Capital – better known as the PCC. The First Command of the Capital (PCC) holds the hegemony of crime in São Paulo, but also an international presence. Narrated by the "brothers", the secret of the PCC's power is revealed in its structure: a masonry of crime, implacable in your ideals.
As an all-out war consumes the streets and jails of 1993 São Paulo, a group of prisoners come together to form a new faction called Primeiro Comando da Capital, or the PCC.
After a massive, coordinated prison rebellion reveals the extent of the PCC’s power, an internal conflict divides the criminal faction.
In May 2006, dozens of state agents and civilians are killed under PCC’s reign, causing new terror and unrest in São Paulo.
A shocking murder solidifies the PCC’s border dominance – and their growing international drug trafficking presence.
