The First Women
Streaming video - 2024
Unveiling the lives of women in Rio de Janeiro's suburbs, nearing their 60s, who were the foundation of Brazil's first women's soccer team. Despite their global football journeys in the 80s and 90s with the national team, their stories remained untold, yielding minimal financial returns. Post-retirement, they navigate informal jobs like street vending, Uber driving, and coaching soccer in social projects. The film intimately explores their present-day routines, reflecting on unrealized dreams, memory, choices, and aging. Amidst their routine, their decades-long friendship shines through, challenging the neglect of these pioneering players in Brazil's football history.
