About Kaiser: The Greatest Footballer Never to Play Football
Carlos "Kaiser" Henrique Raposo was a professional footballer. But he never actually played a game. By convincing others of his abilities (with help from journalist friends) he moved from club to club, avoiding football but partying hard.
Directed by Louis Myles, Kaiser: The Greatest Footballer Never to Play Football leans on a strong ensemble — Carlos Henrique Raposo, José Carlos Araújo, Bebeto — 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 documentary titles of 2018.
