(Sergio Bianchi, 1982); A Matadeira (Jorge Furtado, 1994); Nem gravata nem Honra (Marcelo Masagão, 2001); Jesus no Mundo Maravilha...e Outras Histórias da Polícia Brasileira (Newton Cannito, 2007); Um lugar ao Sol (Gabriel Mascaro, 2009); e o falso documentário Recife Frio (Kleber Mendonça Filho, 2009).
