Trailer

Why watch this film?

The former Palestra Italia (affectionately known as Parque Antarctica, since the space was formerly owned by the homonymous brewery) was one of the most charming stadiums in São Paulo. With its elevated field and no fences, what became known as the "Suspended Garden", the historic site was demolished and gave way to a modern stadium, the Allianz Parque. The documentary tells this trajectory of destruction of the old and construction of the new. Indicated, of course, to Palmeiras fans - but it will also be appreciated by football lovers in general. Also watch the documentary 'First Half' (2011), which delves into the history of the old Parque Antarctica.
