The documentary is a cross-generational portrait of three characters from the streets of Brazil whose lives revolve around football. Loaded with multi-faceted interviews with people such as ex-football players of the Brazilian golden era Socrates, Pepe, Lima, Coutinho etc., as well as anthropologist Roberto DaMatta, musician Osvaldinho Da Cuica and journalist Armando Noguiera, the documentary reveals and dissects the secret of Brazilian football. At its core, it is about Brazilian love and passion, towards football and towards life.
