Titanzinho is a small favela located in Fortaleza, north Brazil. It's one of those places left out of this huge country. The kids there live in poverty, suffering from drugs, prostitution, and extreme violence. However, they find hope in surfing. The Ocean and it's waves deliver a way to forget the everyday life - and for some of them it even delivers the dream to become a professional surfer, like Pablo Paulino, Tita Tavares, Lucinho Lima, or Andre Silva, who all come out of Titanznho.
