Rio de Janiero, Brazil will be the backdrop for the upcoming film about the life of soccer legend Edson Arantes do Nascimento, better known as Pele. Pele is a U.S. production in English, and will be a coming-of-age story that will chronicle Pele's life from his childhood in Três Corações, Minas Gerais, Brazil to his rise as a champion and victor in the 1958 World Cup in Sweden as the youngest player to play in a World Cup final match at the age of 17.
The protesters are rallying against what they perceive to be poor government spending efforts. An estimated nationwide protest of over 1 million people has erupted in the country of Brazil, and so far, the crowd shows little signs of backing down.
