Let’s do the tapir

A story of the Amazon, football and hammocks

Free, no sign-up.

Antônio works in radio in Macapá. One afternoon he decides to get away for a few days and gets lost in the Amazon rainforest.

They are the ones who find him. A village no one has ever contacted, a language in no dictionary anywhere, a hammock, and time that stops being counted in weeks.

To explain where he comes from, Antônio teaches the boys the only thing he can really explain: football. Years later they come out of the forest together, and Brazil discovers — days before the World Cup — that it has a team that plays like no one has ever played.

A story of Amazonia, football and hammocks.
