Nuestra fiebre: Fútbol frenzy in Latin America
These four stories convey what fútbol feels like in Latin America – how it can bring out the best and the worst in us. La caída de River takes us on the journey of what could be the downfall of one of Argentina’s most important teams. La llamada del 10 is an insider look into the cult of soccer legend Diego Maradona through the eyes of a 10-year-old. Fuera de lugar takes a turn to the darker side of the sport when a physical therapist is harassed by a soccer coach. Finally, in Creando un monstruo, writer Santiago Roncagliolo tries to get his young son into soccer, not knowing what he would unleash.
