Buenos Aires-based artist Martin Gordopelota has spent the last few years producing a body of work that illuminates a particularly Argentinian subculture of futbol, grilled meats, cold beer and cigarettes. His canvases and murals depict a quotidian side of the game that is often overshadowed by modern football's focus on big money, big brands and big stars. In this film, Gordopelota shows us the real-life source material for his work and gives us a glimpse of both his skills on the pitch and with the brush.
