Nei Conceição

No synopsis available yet.

With testimonies from stars such as Ademir da Guia, Afonsinho, Gerson and Nei da Conceição, the film pays tribute to Didi, Mr. Football, elected best player in the 1958 World Cup and inventor of the dry leaf kick.

Afonsinho, Paulo Cézar Caju and Nei Conceição started their careers in the mid-1960s, a time of strong political repression in Brazil. Originally teammates of a celebrated generation of the Botafogo football team superstars, they did not give up their freedom when the military dictatorship decided to take control of the field.

Star player Nei Conceição, formerly of Botafogo, is the author of aphorisms rich in spot-on puns, unique insights, and keen perceptiveness—proving that his genius transcends the playing field.
