In 2013, the world watched Brazil – known to many as the country of soccer – take to the streets to protest against the 2014 World Cup. To some, this mega-event was an opportunity; to others, an illusion. This documentary portrays such cycle through the stories of four people from different places and backgrounds: a man who was displaced by the construction works, a FIFA Fan Fest street vendor, a soccer fan, and a young soccer player. The movie also brings up important questions about FIFA and the impacts of mega-events on the host countries.
