In a year, on July 19, the 2026 World Cup final is scheduled, which should happen in the same Metlife Stadium that has just housed the decision of the Club World Cup. July 19 is also celebrated in Brazil as National Football Day.
To mark the date, the MIS (Museum of Image and Sound) holds the first edition of Futmis, shows with feature films and shorts that reflect different aspects of the sport said Breton, including striking achievements, relationship of the fans with stadium, women’s soccer and even the work of narrators. The show takes place on Fridays and Saturdays until July 26, free of charge at the MIS Lab and the museum auditorium.
One of the best productions made to the genre is present, the great “Damn Football Club” (2009), the English film by Tom Hooper, the same director of “The Discourse of the King”, with script by Peter Morgan, creator of the celebrated series “The Crown”.
Stuffed with the typically English irony, the film starts from real events in the early 1970s by showing the rapid and turbulent passage of coach Brian Clough at Leeds United. However, the story features an almost sick feud of Clough with its predecessor in Leeds, Don Review, who changed the team – which was the English champion of the time – for the national team.
The good balcony of the script is to stick more behind the scenes than try to reproduce match scenes, always a challenge – there are several real images of games of the time. This in a period when muddy stadiums and brutality in the four lines set the tone. The film will be screened this Saturday (19) at 18:15.
Corinthians and Palmeiras are represented at Futmis in curious documentaries. Alvinegro is at the 7 -minute 7 -minute 1929 “Bologna 1929” Corinthians Vs. Bologna 1929 “.
The short brings images of what, the legend, was the first filmed game of Corinthians. The friendly match was curiously played at Palestra Italia stadium with an easy Corinthian victory 6-1, with more people on the field than in the crowd – the stands had about 20 witnesses.
Director Rogério Zagallo shows in “First Time” (2011) the relationship of the Palmeirense fans with the Palestra Italia stadium, home of the team that would be demolished to give way to the modern Allianz Parque. The medium (47 minutes) brings scenes of the latest game interspersed with testimonials from former players and fans. The Corinthians and Palmeiras films will be presented at the same session, Saturday (26), at 14h, with the fun “Juventus Tokyo”, like a 2007 day in the history of the dear Mooca team.
One of the main speakers of the country, José Silvério steals the scene in the short “The Father of the Gol”, a nickname he earned, well, the father of the goal. Luiz Ferraz’s camera follows the narrator’s work during a São Paulo x Flamengo, in Morumbi, whose emotions can be transmitted without showing what happens on the field, only in Silvério’s voice.
Representative of women’s football, the drama “Marinette” (Friday, 25, at 8:30 pm) is the french biinette biography, revealing his difficult childhood with an alcoholic father, until professionalization and success with the national team. Pichon then became the first French player to play in the American League.
It is possible to explore other curious or exciting fictional stories inspired by football. Perhaps the most original and rare movie of the show is “The Mystery of the Arsenal Stadium”, Thorold Dickinson’s 1939 long.
In the plot, a murder takes place in the middle of Highbury, the former home of the London team. The victim is a player from The Trojans who would have been poisoned. The teammates themselves and a former lover are among the suspects. No var to solve the mystery.
In addition to the movies, MIS will draw awards that include football books and retro t -shirts, among other pampering. To complete the program, on the 19th and 25th, three publishers will be selling thematic books and will also be held a fair with exchange of collectible shirts.
