Storyville - Season 13 Episode 17 Angels of Rio
Detective Jahlk is the most famous private eye in Brazil, specialising in 'corporate crime' and employing a team of young female agents. This documentary follows the case brought to Jahlk's attention by a 68-year-old import-export entrepreneur, a divorced workaholic who suspects a link between his company and drug-trafficking and fears that his son Luiz might be involved. Discretion is paramount, so Jahlk sends in his 'angels' Natasha, Julia and Tania to infiltrate Luiz's social network and uncover any criminal activity. They quickly establish evidence of Luiz's drug use. In recorded conversations, names pop up - Marcelo the drug courier, Claudio the drug dealer, former drug dealer-turned-agent Ze Carlos, right-wing extremist group the Integralistas and former torturer and policeman JC. The investigation takes the agents into the favelas, undercover in Rio's port, to nightclubs, restaurants, motels and Sao Paulo and back, giving insights into contemporary Brazilian society.
