100 anos de Zizinho, o mestre do rei Pelé
The documentary Olympic Women, directed by Laís Bodanzky, shows that the history of women in sport is often entwined with the history of women as a whole. While so many Brazilian women were fighting for the right to vote, to divorce, and the right to free speech, some were fighting for the right to be present at one of the biggest events on the planet: the Olympics. And something that should have been simple and natural, was not. Some Olympic appearances were dramatic. Others, isolated and lonely. Just as in society, women in sport had to earn their rights by force.
Olympic Women
Directed by Martin Ainstein as part of the "Destino Futebol" series, the documentary, produced by ESPN Films, tells the moving story of former player and doctor Sócrates, who passed away on December 4, 2011. The documentary features testimonies from members of the former Corinthians player's family, including his brothers, among them the former player Raí, his mother, and his son Gustavo. Journalists Juca Kfouri, José Trajano, and Xico Sá are also interviewed, as well as musician Toquinho and former Corinthians and Brazilian national team teammates such as Zico and Wladimir. The production showcases Sócrates' time studying medicine in Ribeirão, his journey through the teams Botafogo de Ribeirão Preto, Corinthians, Fiorentina, Flamengo, and, of course, the national team. It's a great story told by people who knew the idol, remembering key moments of Sócrates' career as a doctor, player, musician, and writer.
