Ronaldo, O Fenômeno

SINOPSE

In 1997 Ronaldo Nazario was, at only 21-years-old, the best footballer on the planet and destined to become one of the sporting world's immortalised names. Yet only a year later his global ambitions were crushed. First he was blamed for Brazil's World Cup final defeat to France, back-to-back injures threatened to end his career in its prime, and a series of club transfers saw him become a controversial figure on the professional football circuit. But two new knees and one World Cup later, Ronaldo was back on top. The Phenomenon is a story of redemption, chronicling Ronaldo's comeback from the brink of forced retirement. Discussing the agony of his knee replacements, the crush of media scrutiny and the pressure to represent his country, this film features exclusive interviews with Ronaldo's family, teammates and doctors.
