Afonsinho

A8

Whether in the midfield, or in any other medium, consciousness is the method. This is demonstrated by A8, an audiovisual monologue in short film with Afonsinho, who knows how to see more than his teammates on the field: – “In order to have a game you need your opponent too”. The heir of Zizinho and Didi’s jersey number values individual talent, but doesn’t ignore that, without the guy who does the heavy work, there is no solo performance. There is no owner of the ball in A8.

Afonsinho, Paulo Cézar Caju and Nei Conceição started their careers in the mid-1960s, a time of strong political repression in Brazil. Originally teammates of a celebrated generation of the Botafogo football team superstars, they did not give up their freedom when the military dictatorship decided to take control of the field.
