Luz, câmera, ação! Você está prestes a se aventurar em uma história real: Reza a lenda, nos primórdios, que arcos delimitavam o gol e, portanto, o guardião da meta passou a ser o arqueiro, termo que se popularizou no jornalismo esportivo brasileiro da primeira metade do século XX.
Um vitorioso goleiro, que colecionou tÃtulos no futebol, encontra-se desamparado nos seus últimos anos de vida. Um jornalista esportivo, ao entrevistá-lo, traz de volta as suas lembranças, dos eventos que antecederam e sucederam a Copa do Mundo de 1950, a primeira no Brasil, e que o marcaram pelo resto da vida.
Um vitorioso goleiro, que colecionou tÃtulos no futebol, encontra-se desamparado nos seus últimos anos de vida. Um jornalista esportivo, ao entrevistá-lo, traz de volta as suas lembranças, dos eventos que antecederam e sucederam a Copa do Mundo de 1950, a primeira no Brasil, e que o marcaram pelo resto da vida.
De uma época em que o uniforme da seleção brasileira ainda era branco, uma obra colossal foi construÃda especialmente para esse evento, criada para ser um sÃmbolo de grandeza do paÃs perante o mundo.
A trama perpassa aspectos sociais e polÃticos articulados por gananciosos gestores e, principalmente, por um magnata das comunicações, que incorpora os preconceitos e eugenia da época e a sua influência na opinião pública.
É um tocante romance de redenção, que resgata a memória que o povo brasileiro, por um tempo, fez questão de esquecer; e ressignifica o seu lugar na história do esporte, paixão nacional.
