Elite Squad
Elite Squad is a 2007 Brazilian film directed by José Padilha. The film is a semi-fictional account of the Batalhão de Operações Policiais Especiais, the Special Police Operations Squad of the Rio de Janeiro Military Police, analogous to the American SWAT teams. It is the second feature film and first fiction film of Padilha, who had previously directed the documentary Bus 174. The script was written by Bráulio Mantovani, based on the book Elite da Tropa by sociologist Luiz Eduardo Soares and two former BOPE captains, André Batista and Rodrigo Pimentel.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Elite Squad
