Trailer
Why watch this film?
Diego Armando Maradona will go down in history, for better and for worse, as one of the most acclaimed and controversial figures in Latin American and world football - and is still a topic of debate after his death in 2020. 'Diego, el último adiós' is a documentary by director Sebastián Alfie ('Gabor') that serves basically as an obituary: friends, family and colleagues of the footballer openly talk about the last year of his life, revealing the person under the myth, farewelled by legions of fans in a tumultuous funeral that caused showers of tears and tear gas. A measure for the ex-Argentine player's fans who still miss the ace.

Money Shot: The Pornhub Story
Adult entertainment, especially in the internet age, is a topic that inevitably becomes complicated when ethics, freedom of expression, commercial interests... and crime are mixed. And of course, no name is bigger in this industry than Pornhub, the site not only the biggest in its field, but on the entire internet. Money Shot: The Pornhub Story is a Netflix exclusive documentary that attempts to unravel this complicated web: on one side, the lack of legislation and protection for consensual sex work; on the other, the accusations that the site hosted illegal content and even facilitated sex trafficking, while executives looked the other way. These are too complex topics and the documentary fails to shed enough light on either of its two narratives, but at least manages to bring them to the table and present interesting arguments.
The Elephant Whisperers
An elephant calf becomes orphaned, and a couple from southern India dedicate themselves to caring for it. That is the simple premise of 'The Elephant Whisperers', a beautiful short documentary film exclusive to Netflix. However, in this simplicity lies a lot of beauty and strength in its brief duration, portraying the purity of animals and the power of their bonds with humans. After watching it, you too will feel compelled to dedicate your life to the protection of elephants.
