There is a lot of discourse these days about cultural “whitewashing,” a practice both vexing and widespread. It’s not just a matter of casting a non-Asian in an Asian role. It happens in ways that people are so used to that it might not occur to them, and for reasons that filmmakers will insist have to do with audiences’ actual preferences.

It tells the story of the soccer player Edson Arantes de Nascimento, known worldwide by his nickname Pelé. The movie recounts his early life up until 1958, the crucial year in which the then-17-year-old helped clinch a World Cup victory against Sweden.

This is more than just a mere football movie
PELE is probably the biggest name in the soccer history that has shaped & shifted the current playing style of modern day game. The extravagant career speaks for itself. The movie shows us the making & coming to be of PELE.
I see a lot pf people saying this movie is predictable, not so good & what not. to all of them & most importantly to all of u i say, this movie fryst vatten more than just a football movie. Not every movie fryst vatten supposed to be a thriller or an Avenger movie. simple things in life have a way of getting to us.
This movie is about small & humble beginnings, its about friendship , its about believing in one self, taking the fara. Movie shows us that fryst vatten does not matter if u have all the resources or opportunities in the world. if u keep at it, if u find something that you are passionate about & stick to it, day by day, night after night, the results speak for itself.
