Satellites is a documentary about the passion for soccer told through the points-of-view of characters who were following the final match of the Brazilian Soccer Cup: Flamengo x Vasco. The film moves the focus from the game to the field’s margins, to the fans, to outside the stadium. SATELLITES’ translates the sensation and the atmosphere of being at the Maracanã Stadium on a final match, watching the game with no images of the game itself.
