The documentary "Chico e as Cidades" was directed by José Henrique Fonseca in 2001 and re-released by Biscoito Fino in June 2009 with three previously unreleased extras: Cecília's music video and takes of the songs "Injuriado" and "Futures Amantes." The DVD was made from the show "As Cidades" – premiered by Chico in 1999, based on the repertoire from the album of the same name. However, far from being a video version of the show, it is a documentary that covers various themes from the composer's life and work, as well as special appearances by Maria Bethânia, Jamelão, Oscar Niemeyer, Tostão, and the Velha Guarda da Mangueira.
