2 Filhos de Francisco - A História de Zezé di Camargo e Luciano (Portuguese for Two Sons of Francisco - The History of Zezé di Camargo and Luciano) is a 2005 Brazilian drama film about the lives of the musicians Zezé Di Camargo & Luciano.
The film was one of Brazil's most successful in the last twenty years and the biggest box office draw of 2005. The film grossed the equivalent of $13 million worldwide, and a total of $8 million in Brazil, a record for Brazilian cinema.[1]
Until 2008, 2 Filhos de Francisco used to be considered the second biggest audience of a Brazilian film (after the 1976 film Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands). In 2009, the blockbuster Se Eu Fosse Você 2, starred by Tony Ramos and Glória Pires, replaced 2 Filhos de Francisco as the second biggest audience among the Brazilian films.
