Plot
Raul Nascimento, a high-ranking member of the Assassinos, has just decided he has had enough of gang life. He wants to leave the gang and live a peaceful life with his girlfriend, Ana. But just after his retirement from his gang, a car bomb injures Raul, destroying his face and killing Ana. He wakes up after three months at the house of a stripper named Larissa with a new face, the result of plastic surgery. Larissa then tells him that she saved his life by calling a doctor after the explosion. After learning that Ana is dead, Raul has renamed himself "Angel". He is now filled with hate and heads out to seek revenge for Ana's death.
Angel rejoins the Assassinos with no one recognizing him as Raul due to the facial changes, in the hope of finding new information on the car bomb. After he goes on a mission to defend a drug stash, he found out that Andreas, the leader of Assassinos, was killed in a drive-by. Marcello was chosen as the new leader. Angel later discovers in a police surveillance van that Marcelo and Ana, who was actually not killed, were together behind his back all the time. He also found out that Marcello detonated the bomb rigged on his car, and Ana killed Andreas in the drive-by. He passed the surveillance tape out to all the members of Assassinos, then used that as proof to kill Marcelo while he was making his speech. Angel was chosen leader this time. Angel eventually tracks down Ana, who was hiding in one of the hangars at the airport, taking Larissa hostage. He calls Fumo to meet him at the airport, and Fumo brought an Assassinos' tank with him. The two of them fought their way to the hangar with the tank where Ana is hiding. They kill all of her guards and free Larissa. Angel then executes Ana. After they leave the hangar, Angel claims that the Assassinos will 'Take the damn city back.'
