Xarpi Carioca film and website, by Trismanco on Nov 1, 2009 11:57:20 GMT 1, www.luzcamerapichacao.com.br/

If you ever travelled to Rio you'll notice the Pichacao is very different to Sao Paulo.
Known as "Xarpi Carioca" - its more squiggly in style and completely impossible to read unless you grown up with it and are part of the culture.

This is the first film I've come across which shows the style - filmed entirely by the pichadores themselves...
