SOB OS HOLOFOTES AMADORES: Uma reflexão sobre a importância social em “Os Boias Frias do Futebol” e “Alambrados do Subúrbio”.

Abstract

This work analyzes the social importance of the documentaries "Os Boias Frias do Futebol" and "Alambrados do Subúrbio". This approach is due to the fact that the documentary attempts to give a voice to those neglected by society, and the works reveal a not very visible area of Brazil. This endeavor will be achieved through analytical research that will be conducted with a deep dive into the two documentaries, in which their social role will be examined. Initially, the presented documentaries will be analyzed in a general context, providing an overview of their production, what they represent, and the nature of the documentaries. Following this, excerpts will be used to illustrate the reality experienced by those who engage in this sport. Based on these excerpts, an analysis will be developed to provide context and interpretation. The analysis revealed significant results regarding the social importance it portrays.
