About New Wave
São Paulo, 1983: Women’s soccer has just been legalized in Brazil. A group of rebellious young women form the Gayvotas Football Club and begin training for their first match. But as the team quickly becomes a media sensation, its members are forced to confront the prejudices of the conservative military dictatorship that they live under.
Directed by José Antônio Garcia, Ícaro Martins, New Wave leans on a strong ensemble — Carla Camurati, Cristina Mutarelli, Tânia Alves — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1984.
