Rio Baile Funk!
More than just parties, Bailes Funk are a necessity, a cultural right for the Afro-Brazilian youth. Despite of repression, 300 to 500 Bailes a week take place in the state of Rio, where between 500 and 5,000 funkeiros gather together.
Vincent Rosenblatt documents constantly the evolution of the Baile Funk scene since 2005..
