Underground City

It’s New Year’s Eve! The subway is welcoming thousands of passengers for the biggest event of the year. And on the front lines, an engineer is overseeing the opening of a new tunnel.

Chaos and fun take over this episode. Corinthians fans create a tense atmosphere at Itaquera station, which also serves as the stage for a performance by the subway band.

The tense and unpredictable daily life of the subway reveals striking scenes: robberies, the illicit sale of tickets, and passengers putting themselves at risk in the underground city.

Life in the Underground City is intense. Amidst domestic violence, theft, medical emergencies, and mechanical issues, agents face unexpected challenges to keep everything running.

It is a tense Friday night in the Underground City. Irritated passengers, eager to get home, get into an altercation in the train car, and a lost object threatens to put everyone at risk.

When things go off track, quick action is needed to get everything back to normal. A heart attack tests the agents' composure, and a breakdown on the CPTM network leaves the Metro on the verge of collapse.

On one hand, the soccer match heightens the tension in the Underground City; on the other, hearts race as an agent drives a train during rush hour for the first time.

Tensions, inequalities, and conflicts manifest daily in the Underground City. A man is assaulted on the train; there is a sudden fainting spell and abusers who act silently.

In this episode, a theft complicates matters for the agents; in the early hours, the challenge of replacing 50 meters of track in just a few hours; and a visitor shakes things up at the Control Center.

The series' first episode reveals the subway as a living environment—a space of diversity and struggle where work, culture, care, and urgency are present every day.
