Biography, Sport

The story of Pelé, from his birth to his rise as one of the most prominent players in both Brazilian and worldwide soccer.

Plot

This movie is about the life of Pele, the most wonderful soccer player of the world of all times. When he is born his mother takes him to a fortune teller and she says: Your son is going to be a King, I don't know King of where or what but he is going to be a King. At the poor village where he lives most people laughs about it. Later on at age 14 he is discovered by a soccer recruiter and he becomes a professional soccer player and soon after he is recognized as the King of Soccer. The are many beautiful scenes like the one when Pele sees the ocean for the first time !! and of course many soccer games and beautiful plays. I want to see this movie again. It is a Black and White movie just in case.
