Barca Dreams

Here we have a very good documentary movie about Barca, the FC Barcelona, one of the most important teams around the world. It narrates the history of the Club from its foundation, thanks to Joan Gamper, going through a lot of legends of football played for the Blaugranas, arriving to our days. We are in front of a good product, with a lot of interesting anecdotes, old charming vintage images from first years of 1900 and interviews to great players and important staff members who contributed to make of Barca a great team and a great Club. The movie fails in some topics not developed as they deserved. 1) When the movie starts introducing the rivalry between Barca and Real Madrid, there is no mention for the episode most important in this old and long challenge: the "Verguenza of Chamartin", a game played during the Franco era in Madrid where because of several pressure, one says of guns showed to the Barca's players in the looker room from Franco's soldiers, the game finished 11-1 for the Blancos. That was the real moment where the Clasico rivalry bore. 2) There is no mention about the social action that Barca made during the Spanish Civil War, when the team continued to play football under the bombs to try to give to the people an idea of normality, and to fundraises in favor to the Catalan hospitals. 3) The chapter dedicated to the Triplete won by Luis Enrique team is too short, and we have the sensation there is no more time available to go on with the movie.
