Hidden Rio

Portraits of curious 'cariocas' whose extraordinary stories reveal another side of Rio. Their tales touch on the city's unique ancestral roots, samba, geology, art, social protests and inequality. Hidden Rio presents five surprising, amazing stories, such as a former slave refuge in Rio's richest area where descendants still live, or a town up in the mountains founded by Finnish migrants where Father Christmas is out and about the whole year and temperatures can be below zero - and it snows!
