Editorial Reviews "[A] gentle coming-of-age story....Life is in the details of community; in a synagogue, on the street, and cheering the great Pele." -- Grade: B Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum (02/15/2008)
"[A] sweet and somber film....What we haven't seen before is this politically tinged soccer-crazed Brazilian Jewish environment....[Hamburger] does not not hold back from showing it to us." Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (02/15/2008)
