UNTOLD

During the CONMEBOL Liberatores, we partnered with official tournament sponsor Betfair to create ‘INCOMPARAVEL’ (‘UNTOLD’), a three-part short documentary film series. The films tell the stories of three inspiring Brazilian football fans overcoming challenges and showing support for their team, from the top of Mount Everest to the Brazilian Amputee Football national team.
