Pelé, the new Netflix documentary, chronicles the life of the Brazilian football player, Edson Arantes do Nascimento - better known as Pelé. The documentary looks back at the extraordinary period when Pelé, the only player to win three World Cup titles, went from a young superstar in 1958 to a national hero, amidst a radical and turbulent era in Brazilian history.

The film charts Pelé’s remarkable journey to becoming the ‘King of Football’ and leading his nation’s team to their historic win at the 1970 World Cup. With rare and exclusive filmed access to Pelé himself, the film emotionally showcases the star reflecting upon his impressive career. The documentary also includes rare archive and interviews from former legendary team-mates at Santos Futebol Clube and the Brazilian national team, including Zagallo, Amarildo and Jairzinho, as well as extraordinary testimonials from family members, journalists, artists and other personalities who witnessed the golden age of Brazilian football.

Launches on Netflix globally on 23rd February 2021.

Great watch yet shallow

A really captivating watch. Great mix of archive footage and interview material to create one of the best football documentaries I've seen.

I liked it was not only about football, it was about politics and the importance of football in Brazil. It's a great way to create conflict but also tension in the story.

I learnt a lot about Pelé but I wish there was more to learn about him as a person. I feel the documentary did not take a inside view of Pelé, but rather looking from the outside. It was more about the impact of Pelé in most cases which of course needs to be included.

I've seen some other football documentaries and this one is by far the best one I've seen.
