Short description

The life story of Brazilian football legend, Pele.

What's left behind the scenes

Pele's mother works as a maid in Jose Altafini's house. In reality, both Pele and Altafini come from humble backgrounds. Furthermore, they lived in different cities.
The film was originally planned for release to coincide with the opening of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, but filming was not completed on time.
