Heroes
We tell the amazing stories of five real-life heroes who overcame great obstacles in their lives through sport, in Brazil.
We tell the amazing stories of five real-life heroes who overcame great obstacles in their lives through sport and now use it to change people's lives in some of the poorest and most violent places in Brazil. We tell the story of a skateboarder, a runner, a sailor, a golfer and a Badminton coach. Their work, in different fronts, fights Brazil's most pervasive problem: the country is still one of the most unequal in the world.
