始于足下：草根足球的传奇1.0

Closing out the lineup, Várzea: Onde Nasce o Futebol (The Root Of The Game) premieres on June 8th and reveals the world of amateur várzea soccer in São Paulo, the cradle of talents like Cafu and Raphinha, who revisit their roots to share how várzea shaped their paths to global success. “This sport creates a unique connection with audiences. These are stories born on the streets, in neighbourhoods, within families, spanning generations and reinforcing a sense of pride,” commented Elisa Chalfon, Head of Nonfiction at Netflix Brazil. “We deeply believe in the power of telling great sports stories. This is an important pillar for Netflix, and we remain committed to investing in original productions that captivate audiences—both longtime sports fans and those who aren’t yet.” Ronaldinho: The One and Only is a co-production by Canal Azul and Trailer Films, directed and written by Luis Ara, who also serves as executive producer alongside Ricardo Aidar and Liz Reis. Luis Ara also directs, writes, and produces the documentary USA 94: Brazil’s Return to Glory, produced by Trailer Films. The Root Of The Game is produced by Ginga Pictures in partnership with R21 and directed by Alec Cutter.
