He had everything but limits. João Guilherme Estrella ("Johnny"), a young middle-class bon vivant, became a big-time cocaine dealer in Rio de Janeiro in the early 1990s. Intelligent, charismatic and very popular, Estrella lived his bohemian days intensively. After being investigated by the police, he was arrested and his name was stamped all over the national papers. Instead of parties, he started to attend trials. Based on a true story, and starring Selton Mello as Estrella, MY NAME AIN’T JOHNNY is an award-winning cinematic tour de force.  English sub-titles.


Il avait tout sauf des limites.

Après enquête, il est arrêté par la police, et son nom fait la une des journaux du pays. Les procès remplacent les soirées. D'après une histoire vraie.
