About the Film
http://www.pelada-movie.com/about/index.html

What the Press is saying…

“To get a sense of " Pelada's" unique motivational quality, take the gut feeling a killer Nike commercial can evoke and imagine riding that high for 90 minutes…an all-around inspiring doc."

Peter Debruge, VARIETY

“a marvelous new soccer documentary”
“what elevates Pelada from a cute highlight travelogue to something more resonant is the filmmakers' ability to find compelling stories and earn the trust of their interview subjects…the result is a film that combines eye-popping cinematography with human stories.”
Grant Wahl, SPORTS ILLUSTRATED

“[Pelada is] deeply personal, emotionally resonant, engrossingly informative, and humbly objective. The combination is potent.”

Landon Palmer, FILM SCHOOL REJECTS
