00:02:55,216 --> 00:02:58,178
[light guitar music]
15
00:03:04,475 --> 00:03:07,020
- [Narrator] They say
that those who go to Rio...
16
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:10,106
do so because they are
attracted by the bright lights.
17
00:03:11,149 --> 00:03:13,568
It is the city of opportunity...
18
00:03:13,568 --> 00:03:18,448
a chance to escape the poverty
and hardship of rural Brazil.
19
00:03:18,448 --> 00:03:20,867
Hope for a better life.
20
00:03:21,784 --> 00:03:23,786
But to make it in this city...
21
00:03:23,786 --> 00:03:26,372
you need to have something
other than just hope.
22
00:03:29,834 --> 00:03:31,377
This is Carlos Henrique Raposo
23
00:03:32,462 --> 00:03:34,255
But no one calls him by that name.
24
00:03:36,007 --> 00:03:38,718
He is known to all as Kaiser.
25
00:03:40,261 --> 00:03:43,681
Kaiser, the German word for emperor.
26
00:03:43,681 --> 00:03:46,184
Derived from the Roman ruler,
Julius Caesar.
27
00:03:47,852 --> 00:03:52,774
Kaiser, like Caesar, is a man
who does not rely on hope...
28
00:03:53,816 --> 00:03:57,362
and like the man who bore
his title before him...
29
00:03:57,362 --> 00:04:00,573
this Kaiser also created an empire,
30
00:04:00,573 --> 00:04:04,786
a world where he was at the
center, pulling the strings.
31
00:04:04,786 --> 00:04:06,079
(moaning)
32
00:04:06,079 --> 00:04:07,789
(all yelling)
33
00:04:07,789 --> 00:04:10,500
(bell dinging)
34
00:04:10,541 --> 00:04:13,711
At least, that's his version of it.
35
00:04:13,753 --> 00:04:16,589
There are many many others.
36
00:04:18,883 --> 00:04:21,886
To understand Kaiser's story,
one thing needs to be made
37
00:04:21,886 --> 00:04:23,930
absolutely clear.
38
00:04:23,930 --> 00:04:26,849
(light horn music)
39
00:04:28,476 --> 00:04:33,439
Brazil loves football and
football loves brazil.
40
00:04:34,023 --> 00:04:35,858
(yelling in portuguese)
41
00:04:35,858 --> 00:04:39,654

(crowd cheering)
43
00:04:43,783 --> 00:04:47,495
(Brazilian soccer anouncer)
44
00:04:48,746 --> 00:04:53,459
[Carlos Alberto] Brazil is an
inexhaustible factory of amazing talent.
45
00:04:55,837 --> 00:04:58,548
(Crowd Cheering)
46
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,844
- [Narrator] Over the
years, Brazil has won
47
00:05:02,844 --> 00:05:04,721
All there is to win
48
00:05:04,721 --> 00:05:08,057
And we have done it in style.
Braziliian style.
49
00:05:11,436 --> 00:05:12,562
[Bebeto] Brazilian football is like an artform.
50
00:05:12,562 --> 00:05:14,522
It's technically fantastic.
51
00:05:15,356 --> 00:05:19,902
The creativity and skill of Brazilian players
is indisputable.
52
00:05:21,195 --> 00:05:24,032
- [Narrator] Brazil may
not have invented football...
53
00:05:24,032 --> 00:05:26,117
but we certainly added Ginga to it.
54
00:05:26,951 --> 00:05:30,455
Ginga, an indefinable,
almost mystical quality
55
00:05:30,455 --> 00:05:33,541
of movement and attitude
possessed by Brazilians.
56
00:05:33,541 --> 00:05:37,420
It is there in the way
we walk, talk, dance...
57
00:05:37,420 --> 00:05:40,423
and yes, in the way we play football.
58
00:05:40,423 --> 00:05:43,926
(crowd cheering)
59
00:05:43,926 --> 00:05:47,472
So, it naturally follows
that those who add ginga...
60
00:05:47,472 --> 00:05:49,724
to what is effectively a national treasue...
61
00:05:49,724 --> 00:05:52,894
are loved and worshiped by millions...
62
00:05:52,894 --> 00:05:55,521
and can get just about anything they want.
63
00:05:57,899 --> 00:06:01,861
The high life, 1980s and 1990s Rio...
64
00:06:01,861 --> 00:06:04,822
was the realm of the superstar footballer.
65
00:06:04,822 --> 00:06:07,450
And in this city, superstar footballers
66
00:06:07,450 --> 00:06:10,828
play for one of Rio's
top four football clubs.
67
00:06:10,828 --> 00:06:14,415
But if a footballer ever
played for all top four clubs,
68
00:06:14,457 --> 00:06:17,418
well, he would be able to have it all.
69
00:06:19,170 --> 00:06:23,424
[Eri Johnson] The first time I saw Kaiser, he was
crossing the street…
70
00:06:24,634 --> 00:06:27,095
with such swagger that I thought…
71
00:06:27,095 --> 00:06:32,183
"That guy must be one of the best
footballers in the world."
72
00:06:32,183 --> 00:06:36,729
[Ricardo Rocha] Kaiser is one of the most iconic
characters in world football.
73
00:06:37,397 --> 00:06:40,525
[Carlos Alberto] Kaiser was cool, in every
sense of the word.
74
00:06:40,525 --> 00:06:43,277
[Alexandre Torres] It was his lingo and vernacular…
75
00:06:43,277 --> 00:06:46,489
the way he walked, the way he dressed.
76
00:06:46,489 --> 00:06:50,368
[Roger Flores] He pranced around in swimming
trunks flicking his long hair around.
77
00:06:50,368 --> 00:06:51,702
[Alexandre Torres] He had that kind of hair…
78
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:54,580
And sunglasses.
79
00:06:56,082 --> 00:06:58,084
Those massive sunglasses.
80
00:06:58,084 --> 00:07:02,380
He would even rock a bumbag which is now completely dated.
81
00:07:04,298 --> 00:07:06,634
In my mind, he was a footballer.
82
00:07:07,635 --> 00:07:11,431
(singing in portuguese)
83
00:07:18,896 --> 00:07:20,982
- [Narrator] Now, a story
about a football player
84
00:07:20,982 --> 00:07:24,193
who was popular and looked
good in tight swimming trunks
85
00:07:24,193 --> 00:07:26,112
would be nothing special
86
00:07:26,112 --> 00:07:29,407
and it would be a relatively short tale.
87
00:07:30,575 --> 00:07:35,037
Kaiser's story is about
much much more than that.
88
00:07:37,915 --> 00:07:39,792
[Buffalo Gil] I think he's the only person on the planet...
89
00:07:40,918 --> 00:07:43,754
who for 26 years...
90
00:07:43,754 --> 00:07:45,923
played football without putting
on a pair of boots.
91
00:07:46,799 --> 00:07:48,551
I don't think he ever went on a pitch.
92
00:07:49,635 --> 00:07:51,387
He signed contracts with many clubs…
93
00:07:52,096 --> 00:07:55,433
but he didn't touch the ball. He didn't
even know the ball was round.
94
00:07:55,975 --> 00:07:58,352
He was a professional conman.
95
00:07:58,936 --> 00:08:02,315
(light percussive music)
96
00:08:05,193 --> 00:08:07,612
[Kaiser] I took part in this documentary
to tell the truth.
97
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,869
In Brazil, footballers have always been fawned over.
98
00:08:14,911 --> 00:08:19,499
People in the football world have always been idolised and seen as special.
99
00:08:19,874 --> 00:08:24,045
That's why my nickname is Kaiser.
My real name is Carlos Henrique Raposo…
100
00:08:24,045 --> 00:08:24,086
That's why my nickname is Kaiser.
My real name is Carlos Henrique Raposo…
Kaiser was given to me because other players
compared me to Beckenbauer.
101
00:08:24,086 --> 00:08:29,133
Kaiser was given to me because other players
compared me to Beckenbauer.
102
00:08:29,133 --> 00:08:34,305
Kaiser, the king of German football, the Pele of German football.
103
00:08:34,305 --> 00:08:40,228
They, not me, thought the way I played was similar to Beckenbauer.
104
00:08:40,269 --> 00:08:45,566
I didn't give myself the Kaiser mantle. The Kaiser title.
105
00:08:46,567 --> 00:08:51,197
They made it up for me because I had something.
106
00:08:51,197 --> 00:08:55,117
(singing in foreign language)
107
00:08:55,117 --> 00:08:57,537
[LUIZ MAEROVITCH ] He was always chubby, always chubby.
108
00:08:58,287 --> 00:09:00,790
Back then there was a beer called Kaiser.
109
00:09:00,790 --> 00:09:04,335
It was kind of a thick round bottle…
110
00:09:04,335 --> 00:09:06,587
and people would ask "Why Kaiser?"
111
00:09:06,587 --> 00:09:08,923
"It's because he looks like the Kaiser bottle."
112
00:09:08,923 --> 00:09:11,008
Then the Kaiser nickname ended up sticking…
113
00:09:11,008 --> 00:09:12,635
that was the story.
114
00:09:12,635 --> 00:09:15,930
[Kaiser] This is the story of an anti-footballer.
115
00:09:15,930 --> 00:09:19,141
I want you to use that phrase. An anti-footballer.
116
00:09:19,141 --> 00:09:23,229
I didn't play. I didn't score. I didn't kick a ball.
117
00:09:23,229 --> 00:09:27,984
It's not the story of the star player,
of the guy who did everything.
118
00:09:27,984 --> 00:09:31,153
It's the story of an anti-footballer.
119
00:09:31,195 --> 00:09:34,865
[Bebeto] He's been in loads of clubs. I think
Kaiser's been all over the world.
120
00:09:35,992 --> 00:09:38,160
Not just Brazil but the whole world.
121
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,662
I'm sure of that.
122
00:09:40,871 --> 00:09:43,916
(upbeat rock music)
123
00:09:44,959 --> 00:09:48,170
- [Narrator] Kaiser was
here there and everywhere...
124
00:09:48,170 --> 00:09:51,048
including Rio's top four clubs.
125
00:09:51,215 --> 00:09:52,800
[Bebeto] He played for Flamengo...
126
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,552
- [Narrator] The biggest club in Brazil
127
00:09:54,552 --> 00:09:57,096
with over 40 million fans.
128
00:09:57,096 --> 00:09:59,307
The list of great players include Zico,
129
00:09:59,307 --> 00:10:01,601
Romario, and Bebeto.
130
00:10:04,353 --> 00:10:07,023
[Carlos Alberto] I met him in person when
he approached me...
131
00:10:07,023 --> 00:10:09,900
He introduced himself as a footballer…
132
00:10:09,900 --> 00:10:12,737
and said that he'd played for several clubs in Europe.
133
00:10:12,737 --> 00:10:18,534
He wanted a chance to show
his value as a player.
134
00:10:20,202 --> 00:10:22,121
[Bebeto] He played for Vasco.
135
00:10:23,956 --> 00:10:26,584
- [Narrator] One of the most
iconic clubs in world football,
136
00:10:26,584 --> 00:10:29,545
named after the famous
Portuguese explorer.
137
00:10:30,379 --> 00:10:33,174
[Paulo Angioni] Sometimes he would spend
three months at one club…
138
00:10:33,215 --> 00:10:36,052
four months at another, five
months somewhere else.
139
00:10:36,052 --> 00:10:39,680
In the same year he would be at three or four clubs.
140
00:10:41,265 --> 00:10:43,225
[Kaiser] I was at Fluminese twice.
141
00:10:44,101 --> 00:10:46,395
- [Narrator] Flamengo's traditional rival.
142
00:10:46,395 --> 00:10:48,689
their derby matches are among the most intense in
143
00:10:48,731 --> 00:10:50,441
South American football.
144
00:10:51,025 --> 00:10:54,111
[MARCIO MEIRA] He managed to train with the Fluminense first team…
145
00:10:54,153 --> 00:10:59,033
but nobody managed to see him train with the ball itself.
146
00:11:00,576 --> 00:11:04,121
[Kaiser] I was at Botafogo two or three times.
147
00:11:05,247 --> 00:11:07,917
- [Narrator] The last of Rio's big four.
148
00:11:07,917 --> 00:11:10,086
Botafogo has produced more
Brazilian internationals
149
00:11:10,086 --> 00:11:11,921
than any other club.
150
00:11:12,004 --> 00:11:16,175
[Bebeto] He would come with newspapers...
151
00:11:16,509 --> 00:11:20,680
and ID cards of clubs he'd been at.
152
00:11:22,515 --> 00:11:25,601
[Junior] He actually managed to get into
professional teams…
153
00:11:25,601 --> 00:11:29,146
that's the most incredible thing about his whole story.
154
00:11:29,855 --> 00:11:31,524
- [Narrator] As well as the big clubs...
155
00:11:31,607 --> 00:11:35,277
Kaiser also played for the smaller Rio teams.
156
00:11:35,403 --> 00:11:38,989
[Kaiser] I had three stints at America FC,
two at Bangu.
157
00:11:41,283 --> 00:11:42,368
- [ Narrator] But Kaiser's career
158
00:11:42,368 --> 00:11:44,036
really took off internationally.
159
00:11:45,705 --> 00:11:47,915
[Kaiser] I spent three years at Puebla
having them on.
160
00:11:48,290 --> 00:11:49,917
It wasn't like El Paso.
161
00:11:49,959 --> 00:11:51,419
El Paso was horrible.
162
00:11:52,253 --> 00:11:56,549
[Martha Esteves] At the time we didn't have access
to the information…
163
00:11:56,549 --> 00:11:58,884
we have today in our globalized world…
164
00:11:58,884 --> 00:12:01,137
with Google and the internet.
165
00:12:01,220 --> 00:12:04,598
[Bebeto] So I'm watching the TV: "The
new signing, Kaiser."
166
00:12:05,433 --> 00:12:07,143
And everyone fell for it.
167
00:12:07,143 --> 00:12:09,520
"I can't believe he's at another club."
168
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:14,483
[Alexandre Torres] He had some offer from Arabia,
from France or Japan.
169
00:12:14,525 --> 00:12:16,902
[Bebeto] He would vanish, disappear.
170
00:12:16,902 --> 00:12:18,195
[Eduardo Oliveiri] He had a photo of Paris Saint-Germain.
171
00:12:18,195 --> 00:12:19,739
He'd trained at Paris Saint-Germain.
172
00:12:19,822 --> 00:12:22,992
[ Renato Mendes Mota]
Independiente in Argentina.
173
00:12:23,117 --> 00:12:26,120
He said he became world club champion…
174
00:12:26,203 --> 00:12:28,456
in a final against Barcelona.
175
00:12:28,914 --> 00:12:33,794
[Bebeto] Then after about six months
Kaiser would come back.
176
00:12:36,213 --> 00:12:37,840
[ Narrator] Kaiser's roster of clubs
177
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,009
is a list that any average player
178
00:12:40,009 --> 00:12:41,677
would die for.
179
00:12:41,677 --> 00:12:44,764
but Kaiser was not your average player.
180
00:12:45,723 --> 00:12:48,225
[Bebeto] Kaiser was crap at football.
181
00:12:48,267 --> 00:12:50,019
That's the conclusion we came to.
182
00:12:51,061 --> 00:12:52,813
He couldn't play for his life.
183
00:12:52,813 --> 00:12:54,523
[Ricardo Rocha] He only had one problem.
The ball.
184
00:12:56,066 --> 00:12:59,069
He was good at everything but
the ball was his weakness.
185
00:13:00,946 --> 00:13:02,448
[Eri Johnson] The ball wasn't his thing.
186
00:13:03,699 --> 00:13:04,617
Coconuts were.
187
00:13:05,534 --> 00:13:08,078
He was good with coconuts, not balls.
188
00:13:11,999 --> 00:13:15,002
- [Narrator] In Brazil,
people who are not very good
189
00:13:15,002 --> 00:13:17,838
at football, won't even get
into a kick-about on a beach,
190
00:13:17,838 --> 00:13:19,173
let alone sign contracts
191
00:13:19,173 --> 00:13:21,342
with some of the biggest
clubs in the world.
192
00:13:23,260 --> 00:13:24,845
Yet despite his lack of talent...
193
00:13:26,222 --> 00:13:27,973
Kaiser managed to do just that.
194
00:13:28,974 --> 00:13:29,767
But how?
195
00:13:31,185 --> 00:13:33,938
[MUSIC: Antonio Carlos E Jocafi "Kabaluere"]
196
00:13:33,938 --> 00:13:36,732
[Carlos Alberto] He turned up on a day…
197
00:13:36,732 --> 00:13:41,612
where the training sessions
was based around fitness.
198
00:13:41,612 --> 00:13:44,031
And he displayed an incredible vigour.
199
00:13:45,449 --> 00:13:48,244
[Kaiser]What I had was physical fitness,
but it wasn't enough.
200
00:13:48,244 --> 00:13:50,496
You had to be skilful. Very skilful.
201
00:13:53,749 --> 00:13:55,543
[Carlos Alberto] We usually started off with fitness…
202
00:13:55,543 --> 00:13:59,380
and finished training with the ball.
203
00:14:00,381 --> 00:14:02,466
[Ricardo Rocha] He was wherever the ball wasn't.
204
00:14:02,466 --> 00:14:04,385
[Marcello Campello] The ball was on the right, he'd be on the left.
205
00:14:04,385 --> 00:14:06,303
The ball was on the left, he'd be on the right.
206
00:14:06,303 --> 00:14:10,558
If the ball was in the middle, he'd be in defence.
The ball was in defence, he'd be in attack.
207
00:14:13,477 --> 00:14:17,064
[Bebeto] We'd play piggy in the middle
with Kaiser as the piggy…
208
00:14:17,064 --> 00:14:18,941
and he'd have serious trouble.
209
00:14:22,987 --> 00:14:25,573
Kaiser would run from oneside to the other…
210
00:14:25,573 --> 00:14:28,284
and we'd just say "Get out Kaiser
or we'll end up killing you."
211
00:14:28,284 --> 00:14:32,037
Kaiser was dying. Sweating loads.
212
00:14:32,037 --> 00:14:34,540
He was wrecked before training even started!
213
00:14:36,041 --> 00:14:38,419
I knew immediately that he didn't possess...
214
00:14:38,419 --> 00:14:42,256
all the qualities that he claimed to have.
215
00:14:44,133 --> 00:14:48,846
[Junior Negão] He knew that he wasn't a footballer
and that he never wanted to play.
216
00:14:48,846 --> 00:14:51,807
It's like a doctor who's scared of blood…
217
00:14:51,807 --> 00:14:54,226
wanting to be a doctor.
218
00:14:55,811 --> 00:14:59,440
[Ricardo Rocha] After the game I'd tell him "Kaiser
you never touch the ball."
219
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,067
He said "Ricardo, I have a unique style of play."
220
00:15:02,067 --> 00:15:03,736
He was a cheeky bastard too.
221
00:15:08,365 --> 00:15:10,326
[Narrator] Clearly, Kaiser wasn't in it
222
00:15:10,326 --> 00:15:11,744
for the footballing glory.
223
00:15:12,745 --> 00:15:14,455
So what was his goal?
224
00:15:16,081 --> 00:15:18,542
[Kaiser] I would sign a contract then take the cash advance…
225
00:15:18,542 --> 00:15:22,838
so it didn't matter if the salary came in or not.
226
00:15:23,422 --> 00:15:28,093
I'm not one of those players who sees out his three year contract.
227
00:15:28,093 --> 00:15:30,638
The idea was to get out as quickly as possible.
228
00:15:31,931 --> 00:15:34,141
[Bebeto] He was always faking something.
229
00:15:34,141 --> 00:15:37,978
His whole injury charade was amazing.
230
00:15:37,978 --> 00:15:45,819
[MUSIC continues]
231
00:15:45,819 --> 00:15:50,074
[Gonçalves] After two sprints he felt something...
232
00:15:50,074 --> 00:15:51,408
He put his hand on his leg…
233
00:15:51,408 --> 00:15:53,285
and he asked to come off.
234
00:15:53,285 --> 00:15:55,079
He was always faking.
235
00:15:55,079 --> 00:15:59,375
Injured ankle, injured thigh, he'd snapped a tendon
236
00:16:01,669 --> 00:16:04,880
[Kaiser] There were no MRI scans back then
so I faked being injured.
237
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,758
[Buffalo Gil] He would sign for a club and stay
with the physio for three months.
238
00:16:08,676 --> 00:16:10,511
Then he would get injured again.
239
00:16:13,097 --> 00:16:15,849
[Marcello Campo] Centre forwards have to score
or at least assist goals
240
00:16:15,849 --> 00:16:20,938
But it's easier to hide from the
game as a centre forward.
241
00:16:22,606 --> 00:16:24,817
I think that's why he played there.
242
00:16:28,696 --> 00:16:32,449
If I had to symbolically kill my grandma to not play, I would kill her.
243
00:16:32,449 --> 00:16:36,495
I would get a phone call saying my grandma had died. I would do that not to play.
244
00:16:37,204 --> 00:16:38,205
I didn't want to play.
245
00:16:42,793 --> 00:16:45,254
[Alexandre Couto] We were in the dressing room
getting changed…
246
00:16:45,254 --> 00:16:48,841
and he put his hand in his bag and
there was a 'brrrrr'
247
00:16:48,841 --> 00:16:51,677
There was a cell phone noise.
248
00:16:51,677 --> 00:16:54,138
Then he takes out a big brick thing that opens like this...
249
00:16:54,888 --> 00:16:55,889
[Kaiser] "Hello"
250
00:16:56,056 --> 00:16:58,267
He was like "I'm just talking with
the people over in France..."
251
00:16:58,267 --> 00:17:01,145
"sorting out my contract."
252
00:17:01,145 --> 00:17:03,564
He used to mix English with French…
253
00:17:03,564 --> 00:17:04,982
'Tres bien, Tres bien. Et vous?"
254
00:17:04,982 --> 00:17:08,610
He would pretend he was talking
to the Barcelona president.
255
00:17:08,610 --> 00:17:11,780
'One moment. One moment please. Tres bien, tres bien."
256
00:17:11,780 --> 00:17:16,368
So when he leaves, Nelson pulls it out…
257
00:17:16,368 --> 00:17:18,245
It's a toy cell phone.
258
00:17:18,245 --> 00:17:23,500
[General chit-chat in portuguese.]
259
00:17:26,754 --> 00:17:33,677
If you tell your friends any of this,
they won't believe it.
260
00:17:33,677 --> 00:17:37,598
Everywhere he went there would be somebody
to have a word with the coach…
261
00:17:37,598 --> 00:17:39,600
so he could have a chance to train.
262
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,854
It was me who had a word with Carlos Alberto Torres
"Professor, let Kaiser train."
263
00:17:43,854 --> 00:17:48,650
Other people too. I think he always had somebody who could help him out...
264
00:17:50,319 --> 00:17:54,031
but he knew he didn't have what it takes
to be a professional footballer.
265
00:17:54,948 --> 00:17:57,659
When they say "Kaiser wasn't a good player."
266
00:17:57,659 --> 00:17:59,787
Kaiser wasn't a good player because…
267
00:17:59,787 --> 00:18:03,123
They're comparing me to the players
I hung around with.
268
00:18:03,123 --> 00:18:06,835
If it was with today's generation, I'd be a star player.
269
00:18:06,835 --> 00:18:07,544
You understand?
270
00:18:08,128 --> 00:18:11,507
(light vibraphone music)
271
00:18:13,717 --> 00:18:16,512
- [Narrator] The players Kaiser
claims he hung around with
272
00:18:16,512 --> 00:18:18,472
were not ordinary footballers.
273
00:18:18,472 --> 00:18:21,016
They are some of the biggest stars Brazil
274
00:18:21,016 --> 00:18:22,976
has ever produced.
275
00:18:22,976 --> 00:18:27,940
Zico, Beberto, Junior, Romario.
276
00:18:27,940 --> 00:18:29,942
You'd have to be really good to stand out
277
00:18:29,942 --> 00:18:31,360
amongst those guys.
278
00:18:31,360 --> 00:18:33,237
(crowd cheering)
279
00:18:33,237 --> 00:18:35,697
One man did just that.
280

His name wasn't Kaiser, though.
281
00:18:37,991 --> 00:18:41,161
It was Renato Portaluppi, a right-winger
282
00:18:41,161 --> 00:18:43,622
from Porto Alegre, southern Brazil.
283
00:18:43,622 --> 00:18:45,791
And because he was from the state
284
00:18:45,791 --> 00:18:47,334
famous for its cowboys
285
00:18:47,334 --> 00:18:51,588

294
00:19:27,124 --> 00:19:28,709
[Bebeto] Reanto was a top player.
295
00:19:28,709 --> 00:19:32,379
He was a player much like…
296
00:19:32,379 --> 00:19:33,380
Cristiano Ronaldo…
297

Messi, Neymar.
298
00:19:36,758 --> 00:19:39,720
[Zico] He'd be there working harder than everybody.
299
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,514
He'd cover more distance than anyone on the pitch.

[Brazilian soccer commentary]
301
00:19:47,019 --> 00:19:48,437
He played every game...
302
00:19:48,770 --> 00:19:51,273
and he always delivered.
303
00:19:51,273 --> 00:19:53,817
[Washington Rodriguez] He has the strength of a Gaucho…
304
00:19:53,817 --> 00:19:57,362
and the ginga of a Carioca.

[Introducing Renato Gaucho]
312
00:20:21,261 --> 00:20:28,602
He was almost like a soap opera
star in that early period.
313
00:20:28,602 --> 00:20:31,813
He'd date women and go to nightclubs…
314
00:20:31,813 --> 00:20:34,441
he'd joke around. He was a real joker.
315

Great for the group. I loved him.
316
00:20:37,527 --> 00:20:39,947
[Martha Esteves] I had a real dislike for him.

Stuck up stud.

I have a deep dislike for stuck-up ladies' men, for arrogant hot guys.

00:20:46,828 --> 00:20:48,747
They really piss me off.

[fantastic man music]
321
00:20:56,421 --> 00:20:59,675
[Washington Rodriguez] Renato was always a lad
in the good sense of the word.
322
00:20:59,675 --> 00:21:02,594
Relaxed, likeable, friendly, affable.
323
00:21:02,594 --> 00:21:04,596
But he was a ladies' man.
324
00:21:04,596 --> 00:21:08,100
[Renato] I send this flower to my love.

00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:10,852
I'll send one to my other love Carla.

Oh God.
330
00:21:22,990 --> 00:21:26,493
We did an interview on the beach…
331
00:21:26,493 --> 00:21:31,873
and he wore tiny, weeny little yellow speedos.
332
00:21:31,873 --> 00:21:33,875
He had a huge speedo collection…
333
00:21:33,875 --> 00:21:37,254
because he lived in Ipanema and he
went to the beach every day.
334
00:21:37,254 --> 00:21:40,549
After chatting for half an hour, we became friends.
335
00:21:41,508 --> 00:21:45,762
[Journalist] You always seem to be dating
a different beautiful woman…

are you fickle?

[Renato] They can choose to accept me how I am.
338
00:21:52,769 --> 00:21:57,941
[Gonçalves] One time in the middle of the
famous Rio Sul shopping mall…
339
00:21:57,941 --> 00:22:03,363
I saw a small crowd gathering with
guys passing by me saying…
340

"Renato Gaucho's over there signing autographs."
341
00:22:05,449 --> 00:22:08,493
And I thought "Is Renato there? I'll go and see."
342
00:22:08,493 --> 00:22:12,748
I get into the middle of the mall and
who's there signing autographs?
343
00:22:12,789 --> 00:22:13,999
Kaiser!
344
00:22:14,750 --> 00:22:16,960
[Ricardo Rocha] He wanted to look like
Renato Gaucho…
345
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,589
He cut his hair the same way…
346
00:22:21,131 --> 00:22:24,551
and tried to wear similar clothes to
Renato when he could.
347
00:22:24,551 --> 00:22:29,306
[Bebeto Singer] He pretended to be Renato.
He would show goal montages from afar…
348
00:22:29,931 --> 00:22:32,976
and because Kaiser had wavy hair like Renato…
349
00:22:32,976 --> 00:22:36,813
he would tell girls that he'd scored a goal for Gremio
350
00:22:36,813 --> 00:22:41,109
and girls bought it because they didn't
have a lot of knowledge about players.
351
00:22:41,109 --> 00:22:47,699
My reign truly began from 1983 when
I was compared to Renato.
352
00:22:47,699 --> 00:22:50,869
That's when my reign starts. Renato's clone.
353
00:22:58,877 --> 00:23:02,297
[Renato] I began visiting Rio de Janeiro in 1983…
354
00:23:04,007 --> 00:23:07,552
and it was around then I met this legend.
355
00:23:07,552 --> 00:23:08,804
We can call him that.
356
00:23:08,804 --> 00:23:13,600
All of you abroad may have only
just heard of him…
357
00:23:13,642 --> 00:23:17,479
but for us here he's a legend.
358
00:23:17,479 --> 00:23:19,981
And then I started hearing all of these stories about me…
359
00:23:19,981 --> 00:23:20,023
And then I started hearing all of these stories about me…
"This guy's slept with women pretending to be you.
He's doing this or that."
360
00:23:20,023 --> 00:23:24,736
"This guy's slept with women pretending to be you.
He's doing this or that."
361
00:23:24,736 --> 00:23:26,780
"He's doing well out of your name."
362
00:23:26,780 --> 00:23:29,074
I said "If the guy's doing well, let him."
363
00:23:29,074 --> 00:23:31,910
"Unless he's stealing or attacking
somebody let him do it."
364
00:23:31,910 --> 00:23:34,454
Due to my resemblance with Renato…
365
00:23:35,622 --> 00:23:37,624
"I used to to sleep with older women..."
366
00:23:38,458 --> 00:23:39,501
for money…
367
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,711
because women wanted to bed Renato…
368
00:23:41,711 --> 00:23:44,131
but they paid to have sex with Kaiser.
369
00:23:45,132 --> 00:23:49,386
[Renato] When I met Kaiser I could really see
how much he resembled me.
370
00:23:49,928 --> 00:23:53,473
After we met I could never forget him…
371
00:23:53,473 --> 00:23:55,684
because he's a real character.
372
00:23:55,684 --> 00:23:58,520
There are endless stories about Kaiser.
373
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,273
We've been good friends for many years…
374
00:24:01,314 --> 00:24:04,276
and I know we'll stay that way.
375
00:24:06,278 --> 00:24:10,282
[Kaiser] I don't drink because my mum was an alcoholic.
I have an aversion to drink.
376
00:24:11,908 --> 00:24:16,121
For me nowadays, my dad, my brother,
my friend, my everything…
377
00:24:16,121 --> 00:24:17,205
is Renato Gaucho.
378
00:24:18,957 --> 00:24:22,335
(upbeat jazz music)
379
00:24:22,335 --> 00:24:24,212
- [Narrator] By pretending to be Renato,
380
00:24:24,212 --> 00:24:28,133
Kaiser had tasted the life
of a professional footballer.
381
00:24:28,133 --> 00:24:30,302
He had his entry into the game
382
00:24:30,302 --> 00:24:32,596
and he fully intended to exploit it.
383
00:24:33,597 --> 00:24:37,642
In Brazil, Kaiser is known as a 171,
384
00:24:37,642 --> 00:24:40,687
the penal code for scams and fraud.
385
00:24:41,897 --> 00:24:43,815
[Sergio Americo] As we say colloquially here in Brazil…
386
00:24:43,815 --> 00:24:46,401
"Every 171 is loveable"
387
00:24:46,401 --> 00:24:48,778
And Kaiser is no exception.
388
00:24:48,778 --> 00:24:51,615
[Zico] They're always bad. Always bad.
389
00:24:51,615 --> 00:24:55,118
Profiting from something they don't do.
390
00:24:55,994 --> 00:24:58,163
[Junior Negão] Kaiser is a good 171...
391
00:24:59,164 --> 00:25:03,126
He was shady in a good way.
392
00:25:03,126 --> 00:25:09,591
I think he's an affront to the profession of football.
393
00:25:12,636 --> 00:25:14,888
- [Narrator] Kaiser knew
that if he wanted to maintain
394
00:25:14,888 --> 00:25:18,725
his footballer lifestyle,
he had to become one.
395
00:25:19,935 --> 00:25:22,562
And with his growing
network of famous friends,
396
00:25:22,562 --> 00:25:26,233
he started getting introductions
to professional clubs.
397
00:25:28,235 --> 00:25:30,904
But his first opportunity
didn't come in Rio,
398
00:25:30,904 --> 00:25:35,909
but 9,000 kilometers away.
399
00:25:39,913 --> 00:25:43,208
[French accordion music]
400
00:25:48,088 --> 00:25:52,050
[Alexandre Couto] Ajaccio, or Corsica actually…
401
00:25:52,801 --> 00:25:56,805
the island, is very beautiful. Surrounded by the Mediterranean.
402
00:26:01,518 --> 00:26:04,104
[Kaiser] GFCA. Gazelec Football Club Ajaccio.
403
00:26:06,022 --> 00:26:09,192
I was taken by a Brazilian called
Fabio Barros, Fabinho.
404
00:26:11,736 --> 00:26:14,781
I arrived and they had high expectations
because I was Brazilian.
405
00:26:15,991 --> 00:26:17,742
The stadium was packed with fans.
406
00:26:18,827 --> 00:26:21,371
I climbed into the stands and gave
flowers to the president's wife…
407
00:26:21,371 --> 00:26:23,748
got the Corsican flag and kissed it.
408
00:26:24,457 --> 00:26:25,542
And so I didn't have to train…
409
00:26:25,542 --> 00:26:27,252
I kicked all the balls out to the fans…
410
00:26:28,128 --> 00:26:29,254
and then there was no training.
411
00:26:29,671 --> 00:26:30,797
I got a standing ovation.
412
00:26:31,298 --> 00:26:33,633
Just because of that I could have stayed ten years without playing.
413
00:26:35,343 --> 00:26:38,096
[Alexandre Couto] There was a game, which I was
watching from the stands
414
00:26:38,096 --> 00:26:44,227
And right when they blew the whistle
he made a crazy ten metre dash.
415
00:26:44,227 --> 00:26:46,980
At the end of the sprint he put his hand on his
leg and fell on the ground.
416
00:26:46,980 --> 00:26:51,693
There was a French guy sat next to me who also played
for the club and he said...
417
00:26:51,693 --> 00:26:55,238
"Alex, that guy never plays. I already knew that was going to happen..."
418
00:26:55,238 --> 00:26:58,283
"I was actually surprised he didn't come off before the whistle blew."
419
00:27:01,786 --> 00:27:05,832
His relationship with the club couldn't have been worse.
420
00:27:06,124 --> 00:27:11,504
He didn't bother anybody, but
the coach didn't like him.
421
00:27:12,213 --> 00:27:16,384
[Kaiser] My friends were the directors not the players.
422
00:27:18,178 --> 00:27:23,099
[Alexandre Couto] Corsica wants to be independent.
423
00:27:23,892 --> 00:27:26,811
So the violence there is really bad.
424
00:27:29,147 --> 00:27:32,108
It's mafia. Let's not beat around
the bush. It's mafia.
425
00:27:34,235 --> 00:27:38,281
Mancini, an Italian, was vice-president.
426
00:27:39,366 --> 00:27:42,369
He had a special relationship with Mancini…
427
00:27:42,369 --> 00:27:43,370
as if he was his son.
428
00:27:44,079 --> 00:27:47,999
It was like a wing of protection around Kaiser.
429
00:27:47,999 --> 00:27:50,418
It was a kind of mafia thing.
430
00:27:53,380 --> 00:27:56,883
[Kaiser] There came a point when they said
"He's not going to perform."
431
00:27:56,883 --> 00:27:59,886
"He's not going to perform but
he's important to us."
432
00:27:59,886 --> 00:28:02,555
And he was loaned out, he didn't stay there.
433
00:28:02,555 --> 00:28:04,349
He was always going back to Brazil to play for Bangu
434
00:28:04,349 --> 00:28:05,934
Loaned out to Bangu, America FC.
435
00:28:07,936 --> 00:28:08,770
- [Narrator] In a country
436
00:28:08,770 --> 00:28:10,230
where he couldn't speak the language
437
00:28:10,230 --> 00:28:13,817
and was a complete unknown,
Kaiser had conned his way
438
00:28:13,817 --> 00:28:15,819
into professional football.
439
00:28:18,154 --> 00:28:20,365
Having a foreign club on his resume
440
00:28:20,365 --> 00:28:23,993
gave him exactly what
he needed back at home,
441
00:28:23,993 --> 00:28:28,123
a doorway into the world
of Brazilian football.
442
00:28:31,418 --> 00:28:37,132
[Kaiser] The clubs I've been at probably won't admit it…
443
00:28:37,590 --> 00:28:40,635
because I was a disappointment for them.
444
00:28:40,677 --> 00:28:42,721
But clubs screw so many people over…
445
00:28:43,263 --> 00:28:45,390
that somebody had to trick the clubs.
446
00:28:45,390 --> 00:28:47,350
They couldn't fire me.
447
00:28:47,350 --> 00:28:49,978
How do you explain that you signed
some player who didn't work out?
448
00:28:49,978 --> 00:28:51,271
You can't sell them.
449
00:28:51,271 --> 00:28:53,481
You'll be devaluing all of your assets.
450
00:28:53,565 --> 00:28:56,609
All the teams I went to celebrated twice...
451
00:28:56,609 --> 00:28:58,611
when I signed and the again when I left.
452
00:29:00,029 --> 00:29:01,030
You understand?
453
00:29:01,030 --> 00:29:04,617
The only exception to that was Bangu.
454
00:29:05,702 --> 00:29:08,580
[Superfantastico theme tune]
455
00:29:09,956 --> 00:29:13,501
- [Narrator] This is the
legendary Brazilian children's
456
00:29:13,501 --> 00:29:15,420
TV show, Balao Magico.
457
00:29:15,420 --> 00:29:19,924
It featured a clown, a flying
balloon with an evil face,
458
00:29:19,924 --> 00:29:22,969
and what appears to be a dancing penis,
459
00:29:22,969 --> 00:29:24,262
which is stroking an egg.
460
00:29:25,722 --> 00:29:29,476
Balao Magico and its theme
song, Super Fantastisco,
461
00:29:29,476 --> 00:29:32,979
were loved by millions,
including this man,
462
00:29:32,979 --> 00:29:36,107
Castor de Andrade.
463
00:29:36,107 --> 00:29:39,527
Castor was a colorful
character in Brazilian life.
464
00:29:39,527 --> 00:29:42,989
He was patron of the famous
Moncidade's Samba School,
465
00:29:42,989 --> 00:29:45,033
which still competes in Rio Carnival.
466
00:29:46,785 --> 00:29:48,119
Castor was a man of the people,
467
00:29:48,119 --> 00:29:50,997
known throughout the entire country.
468
00:29:50,997 --> 00:29:51,956
- Bravo!
469
00:29:51,956 --> 00:29:54,501
- [Narrator] And he financed
and controlled Bangu,
470
00:29:54,501 --> 00:29:57,879
a small club in the west zone of Rio.
471
00:29:57,879 --> 00:30:00,757
Whatever he wanted, happened.
472
00:30:00,757 --> 00:30:03,176
- Offside!
473
00:30:03,176 --> 00:30:07,055
And Castor wanted the Bangu
band to play Super Fantastico
474
00:30:07,055 --> 00:30:08,973
at every game.
475
00:30:13,394 --> 00:30:16,272
♪ Super Fantastico ♪
476
00:30:17,273 --> 00:30:21,152
[Romarinho] Everybody who played for Bangu
under Doctor Castor…
477
00:30:21,820 --> 00:30:23,363
was afraid of Doctor Castor.
478
00:30:23,363 --> 00:30:26,741
That's a fact. You couldn't not be.
479
00:30:28,034 --> 00:30:29,035
[Renato Prado] The left back for the 1970 national
team, Marco Antonio…
480
00:30:31,204 --> 00:30:32,205
was always injured and he couldn't play.
481
00:30:33,665 --> 00:30:37,126
Castor went to training where Marco
Antonio was chatting away…
482
00:30:37,126 --> 00:30:38,419
he took his revolver out…
483
00:30:39,671 --> 00:30:42,173
BANG, he took a shot near Marco Antonio's foot.
484
00:30:42,590 --> 00:30:46,135
He jumped about two kilometres.
485
00:30:46,970 --> 00:30:50,348
"Look! You're fine! You can play tomorrow then."
486
00:30:50,557 --> 00:30:52,934
(light percussive music)
487
00:30:52,934 --> 00:30:55,270
- [Narrator] Castor was a man
488
00:30:55,270 --> 00:30:57,897
that no one wanted to mess with.
489
00:30:57,897 --> 00:31:01,818
In the 1980s, he was considered
to be the most dangerous
490
00:31:01,818 --> 00:31:04,070
crime boss in Brazil.
491
00:31:04,404 --> 00:31:09,993
[Romarinho] If the police stopped you in the street
and you mentioned Doctor Castor…
492
00:31:09,993 --> 00:31:12,453
you would get off scott-free.
493
00:31:12,453 --> 00:31:17,375
Castor de Andrade's name was very powerful.
494
00:31:19,711 --> 00:31:23,590
[Washington] I was a friend of his. I'm godfather to his daughter.
495
00:31:23,590 --> 00:31:28,928
Castor was charismatic, caring. He lived on the wrong side of the law…
496
00:31:28,970 --> 00:31:34,809
but all the powerful leaders around the country loved him.
497
00:31:36,978 --> 00:31:39,230
- [Narrator] Castor was a bichiero,
498
00:31:39,230 --> 00:31:43,943
the head of an illegal lottery
game called Jogo Do Bicho.
499
00:31:43,943 --> 00:31:46,738
You can still buy a ticket
on every street corner
500
00:31:46,738 --> 00:31:48,489
in Brazil and it's tolerated
501
00:31:48,489 --> 00:31:51,784
because everybody plays it.
502
00:31:51,784 --> 00:31:53,661
Castor had been born into the game
503
00:31:53,661 --> 00:31:56,080
and had gone from owning
a few lottery stores
504
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:57,665
to becoming one of the richest
505
00:31:57,665 --> 00:32:00,501
and most influential people
in the whole of Brazil.
506
00:32:01,210 --> 00:32:03,838
[Sergio Americo] Castor de Andrade was drowning in money.
507
00:32:04,047 --> 00:32:06,424
He could light cigars with $100 bills.
508
00:32:13,306 --> 00:32:17,352
[Martha Esteves] He was the boss. He assumed
the power of the role.
509
00:32:17,352 --> 00:32:22,315
I would very often see players kiss his hand.
510
00:32:22,315 --> 00:32:23,816
That would actually happen.
511
00:32:26,235 --> 00:32:29,530
- [Narrator] Crime bosses
are passionate people.
512
00:32:29,530 --> 00:32:31,658
And what better to release passion
513
00:32:31,658 --> 00:32:33,076
than through football.
514
00:32:34,118 --> 00:32:36,913
Bangu and Castor were a perfect match.
515
00:32:38,790 --> 00:32:40,667
[Referee] I saw who ordered them to attack me…
516
00:32:40,667 --> 00:32:42,210
and it was the chairman,
Castor de Andrade.
517
00:32:42,210 --> 00:32:45,505
[Castor] ran after the referee with a
clear instruction saying…
518
00:32:45,505 --> 00:32:47,215
"Don't leave the pitch!"
519
00:32:47,215 --> 00:32:50,802
"Wait on the pitch for the police."
520
00:32:50,802 --> 00:32:55,598
And as I approached him shouting
"Don't leave the pitch!"
521
00:32:55,598 --> 00:33:01,229
He might have thought I was trying
to attack him, so he ran off.
522
00:33:05,608 --> 00:33:06,859
The footage shows the carnage...
523
00:33:06,859 --> 00:33:08,277
but I didn't see anything.
524
00:33:09,779 --> 00:33:12,699
[Jose Carlos Araujo] I remember saying
to him "Hey, Castor..."
525
00:33:12,699 --> 00:33:18,705
He liked me a lot because I
didn't ask for bribes.
526
00:33:18,705 --> 00:33:22,500
And he said to me "Garotinho, get this in your head..."
527
00:33:22,500 --> 00:33:24,585
"Only people that deserve it get killed."
528
00:33:26,087 --> 00:33:28,006
So I went out thinking "Whoa, only people that deserve it get killed!"
529
00:33:28,006 --> 00:33:31,467
how was I supposed to interpret that sentence?
530
00:33:32,635 --> 00:33:34,387
- [Narrator] Castor's money
brought in some of the greatest
531
00:33:34,387 --> 00:33:37,640

including some of the 1970
532
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,560
World Cup winning squad
and their superstar
533
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,021

534
00:33:46,649 --> 00:33:49,986

to narrowly missing out

[Brazilian soccer commentary]
537
00:33:58,202 --> 00:34:02,331
Castor's money also brought
him a not-so-great player.
538
00:34:03,332 --> 00:34:04,709
[Kaiser] I came from Ajaccio.
539
00:34:04,709 --> 00:34:05,835
I went from Corsica to Bangu.
540
00:34:06,669 --> 00:34:10,465
There's a newspaper headline
saying "Bangu has its king.

00:34:10,465 --> 00:34:12,216
Who was that? Zizinho?
542
00:34:12,216 --> 00:34:14,427
No. Carlos Kaiser.
543
00:34:14,427 --> 00:34:18,139
From a sports newspaper back then. It's there for whoever wants to see it.
544
00:34:18,222 --> 00:34:22,185
[Marcello Henrique] I saw this newspaper headline
"Bangu signs Kaiser."
545
00:34:22,185 --> 00:34:25,938
The name alone stands out. A name like Kaiser.
546
00:34:25,938 --> 00:34:28,441
"I want to see this guy play."
547
00:34:28,441 --> 00:34:32,111
[Ado] He became as important...
548
00:34:32,111 --> 00:34:34,238
as Mauro Galvão, Marinho…
549
00:34:34,238 --> 00:34:36,741
and nobody today can explain why.
550
00:34:36,741 --> 00:34:42,371
Because he was as important as
we were for the club.
551
00:34:42,371 --> 00:34:43,873
For doing nothing.
552
00:34:43,873 --> 00:34:45,124
He wasn't a player.
553
00:34:49,295 --> 00:34:50,838
[Marcello Henrique] I was a ball boy at Bangu.
554
00:34:54,217 --> 00:34:57,220
He would tell me from on the pitch
"Go up to the stands..."
555
00:34:57,220 --> 00:35:00,556
"and get all the guys from the favela here to shout my name"
556
00:35:00,556 --> 00:35:06,354
"Then after the training I'll buy you a snack and a drink."
557
00:35:06,437 --> 00:35:10,024
I said "Leave it to me." Then I went up and got about 30 guys to shout...
558
00:35:10,024 --> 00:35:12,151
"Kaiser! Kaiser!"
559
00:35:12,151 --> 00:35:16,030
After that Castor would say "He's the man."

dangerous man in Brazil.

00:35:23,204 --> 00:35:26,040
Tripping Castor up is like tripping up
a tortoise. It's difficult...
563
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:27,583
but it seems he did it.
564
00:35:31,546 --> 00:35:34,465
[Romarinho] We were afraid of Doctor Castor…
565
00:35:34,507 --> 00:35:37,135
but he loved Kaiser.
566
00:35:37,343 --> 00:35:40,429
[Ado] You'd got into Castor's room and
Kaiser was always there…
567
00:35:40,429 --> 00:35:43,641
playing, chatting and laughing loads.
568
00:35:46,060 --> 00:35:50,606
When we had to give an interview,
Doctor Castor asked him to do it.
569
00:35:50,606 --> 00:35:53,985
And everybody was like "Doctor, why Kaiser?"
570
00:35:53,985 --> 00:35:56,821
He would just say "Kaiser is the man.
571
00:35:58,614 --> 00:36:02,910
[Kaiser] Doctor Castor always thought I was
going to shine at some point
572
00:36:03,536 --> 00:36:08,916
I organized everything. I was
the team's PR manager.
573
00:36:09,584 --> 00:36:12,170
So when a director of the team
decided to get rid of me…
574
00:36:12,170 --> 00:36:14,589
there were 30 people demanding
that I stayed.
575
00:36:19,886 --> 00:36:22,013
[Ado] The good thing he brought to Bangu was that he filled the place up with girls.
576
00:36:22,013 --> 00:36:25,141
He would arrive in a van…
577
00:36:25,183 --> 00:36:26,517

578
00:36:28,728 --> 00:36:30,104
He's amazing.

I don't know where his talent comes from but it's good.

[Kaiser] This documentary has to be based on the
personal side, not the footballing one.
581
00:36:39,363 --> 00:36:42,617
I wasn't any kind of legend. I was a legend to other people.
582

The players' legend, not the fans' one.

for on the dance floor.

so people would inexplicably give
him special treatment.

then he'd go up to them and say "Hey, I'm a footballer..."
607
00:38:17,253 --> 00:38:18,963
and the girl would be like "Wow! A footballer?"
608
00:38:21,632 --> 00:38:24,093
[Guitierrez] He would go up to women and say…
609

"I'm a footballer. I want to dedicate my next goal to you on TV"

That's where the trouble started.

I remember one time we went to a nightclub called Nuth over in Barra.
613
00:38:40,401 --> 00:38:46,615
Kaiser invited me and two girls
to a nightclub opening.

"Ok. Let's go."

all on my tab and I know everybody there."
616
00:38:52,413 --> 00:38:56,208
Then he opened a door about this
height to crawl through.
617
00:38:58,377 --> 00:39:01,380
Under the door and under all these pots and pans.
618
00:39:01,380 --> 00:39:03,424
He got me in through the kitchen.

I come in and there's a fryer in front of me.

We came out onto the roof and down
a ladder then we were in the club.

Then once we finally got in I realised
that he'd just snuck us in like a rat.

I said to him "Fucking hell Kaiser, I work..."

00:39:22,026 --> 00:39:26,113
"I can just go to the front and pay the
entrance fee. I don't need this shit!"

00:39:27,948 --> 00:39:31,577
I got in trouble at home with my wife…
625
00:39:31,577 --> 00:39:34,955

there, Renato was with a woman."

He was walking in and was stopped by the bouncer.
631

Kaiser said "Don't you know who I am?"

"I'm Renato Gaucho."
"Oh Renato! Come on in."

00:40:00,481 --> 00:40:03,275
Come sit down here. You and Mauricio sit here. They're players."

00:40:05,820 --> 00:40:11,534
Then the real Renato comes along
and the bouncer stops him.
636
00:40:11,534 --> 00:40:14,787
I say "The owner invited me along.
I'm with a couple of friends."

"Do I look like an idiot?"
641
00:40:25,673 --> 00:40:27,425

"Oh hell, I'm going on the pitch.
What am I going to do?"
679
00:43:45,623 --> 00:43:46,707
So they put him on the bench.
680
00:43:47,082 --> 00:43:49,627
The game is in full flow then Castor sends a
message down saying "Put Kaiser on."
681
00:43:50,127 --> 00:43:53,380
"Send Kaiser on. Put the big guy
up front so he scores."
682
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:56,717
And he's terrified of coming on
683
00:43:59,428 --> 00:44:01,055
They tell him to warm up and he thinks…
684
00:44:01,055 --> 00:44:03,432
"I'm screwed. I'm screwed.
685
00:44:08,687 --> 00:44:11,190
"If the Doctor finds me out, I'm dead."
686
00:44:13,275 --> 00:44:16,695
I started to warm up and
supporters were shouting…
687
00:44:16,695 --> 00:44:19,281
"Long haired faggot!"
I thought "Now's my chance."
688
00:44:21,450 --> 00:44:23,077
So I jumped the fence.
689
00:44:25,704 --> 00:44:27,748
And he fights this fan.
690
00:44:45,140 --> 00:44:46,850
and I was sent off before coming on the pitch.
691
00:44:56,819 --> 00:44:59,405
Castor comes down to the dressing
room ready to kill him.
692
00:45:02,241 --> 00:45:06,203
"Kaiser, for God's sake, the boss is
going to kill you today."
693
00:45:06,203 --> 00:45:08,831
"What have you done? You're crazy."
694
00:45:19,049 --> 00:45:21,051
I was sitting down and thinking
about what I could say.
695
00:45:21,593 --> 00:45:24,096
Then Doctor Castor comes in with his heavies.
696
00:45:30,269 --> 00:45:32,563
When he came up to me I said…
697
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:34,064
"Doctor."
698
00:45:34,732 --> 00:45:37,609
"Before you speak I want
to say something."
699
00:45:39,653 --> 00:45:42,740
"I can't tolerate fans saying bad things about you..."
700
00:45:42,740 --> 00:45:43,824
"you are incredible."
701
00:45:43,824 --> 00:45:45,284
"You're my father."
702
00:45:48,454 --> 00:45:50,414
"God took away my real father..."
703
00:45:50,789 --> 00:45:51,874
"then he gave me you."
704
00:45:57,171 --> 00:46:00,382
"The fans out there were calling
you a crook and a bum..."
705
00:46:00,382 --> 00:46:03,427
"That you're a criminal, you're a villain."
706
00:46:03,427 --> 00:46:05,804
"They were slandering you saying
you were a drug baron..."
707
00:46:07,431 --> 00:46:08,265
"Doctor…"
708
00:46:09,266 --> 00:46:11,685
"My contract is up in a fortnight."
709
00:46:11,685 --> 00:46:13,479
"You'll be rid of me in a fortnight."
710
00:46:14,772 --> 00:46:16,982
- No!
711
00:46:27,201 --> 00:46:28,535
Kaiser.
712
00:46:29,495 --> 00:46:31,455
You are my friend.
713
00:46:32,831 --> 00:46:35,918
Three more months on your contract.
714
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,589
"You're my friend. Three more
months on your contract!"
715
00:46:45,803 --> 00:46:49,139
"Put another six months on Kaiser's
contract and double his pay."
716
00:46:49,181 --> 00:46:51,767
And the whole team was like "Fucking hell.
How did you manage that?"
717
00:46:55,103 --> 00:46:57,815
He stayed for another three months
suckling Castor's tit.
718
00:46:59,733 --> 00:47:04,863
(Rock Music)
719
00:47:08,242 --> 00:47:10,619
- [Narrator] So, by
impersonating superstars
720
00:47:10,619 --> 00:47:14,164
and sweet-talking gangster
bosses, Kaiser proclaimed
721
00:47:14,164 --> 00:47:17,709
to be a footballer himself.
722
00:47:17,709 --> 00:47:21,213
Now it was time to do some
serious self-promotion,
723
00:47:21,213 --> 00:47:23,507
appear in sporting and gossip columns
724
00:47:23,507 --> 00:47:26,176
and start to dominate, not just Bangu,
725
00:47:26,176 --> 00:47:28,595
but the entire city of Rio.
726
00:47:29,638 --> 00:47:33,433
(Music continues)
727
00:47:35,477 --> 00:47:38,313
There were friendships that Kaiser
forged with certain journalists.
728
00:47:38,313 --> 00:47:39,898
Who he'd schmooze.
729
00:47:39,898 --> 00:47:43,485
He'd sell his story and the journalists believed it.
730
00:47:46,446 --> 00:47:49,241
There are loads of interviews with
him with many journalists.
731
00:47:49,241 --> 00:47:51,285
He's done loads of TV shows
732
00:47:51,285 --> 00:47:53,745
It's truly unbelievable.
733
00:47:54,037 --> 00:47:55,956
Actually this is how it goes…
734
00:47:55,956 --> 00:47:58,709
I was sold to Ajaccio in Corsica.
735
00:47:58,709 --> 00:48:00,294
In French it's "Ajaccienne."
736
00:48:00,669 --> 00:48:02,504
Jairzinho, I was your lucky charm…
737
00:48:03,505 --> 00:48:05,799
I saw you come to Botafogo.
738
00:48:06,216 --> 00:48:07,217
What's up gang.
739
00:48:07,217 --> 00:48:08,844
It's not just any show today.
740
00:48:08,844 --> 00:48:11,013
It's a special show.
741
00:48:11,013 --> 00:48:12,472
You know why?
742
00:48:12,472 --> 00:48:15,309
Why? Because Renato's here.
743
00:48:15,309 --> 00:48:16,602
You're so hot right now.
744
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,607
The important thing is to be happy.
745
00:48:22,149 --> 00:48:27,696
He sold the story of his life
being a footballer.
746
00:48:27,696 --> 00:48:29,156
He inhabited the character…
747
00:48:30,866 --> 00:48:32,868
and he talked the talk.
748
00:48:35,454 --> 00:48:39,583
(upbeat percussive music)
749
00:48:39,583 --> 00:48:41,251
- [Narrator] As Kaiser's fame spread,
750
00:48:41,251 --> 00:48:44,755
he was able to get into any
football club he wanted.
751
00:48:44,755 --> 00:48:49,009
Trying to work out which
club he was at any one time
752
00:48:49,009 --> 00:48:50,260
was impossible.
753
00:48:50,260 --> 00:48:51,929
He was everywhere.
754
00:48:51,929 --> 00:48:54,723
A few weeks here, a few months there.
755
00:48:55,641 --> 00:48:58,185
[Kaiser] Dates for me are something I want to forget.
756
00:48:58,185 --> 00:49:03,106
I didn't care about changing clubs all the time…
757
00:49:03,106 --> 00:49:07,694
When a manager told me I wasn't going to play, I was overjoyed.
758
00:49:08,362 --> 00:49:11,156
- [Narrator] In order to maintain
the life of a footballer,
759
00:49:11,156 --> 00:49:14,409
all Kaiser had to do was
make sure he never set foot
760
00:49:14,409 --> 00:49:16,995
on a pitch, or went near a football.
761
00:49:17,871 --> 00:49:19,665
[Kaiser] A famous midfielder for Fluminense…
762
00:49:20,499 --> 00:49:23,710
knocked some guy out in a nightclub
and I took the blame.
763
00:49:24,211 --> 00:49:26,129
I saved the players' asses.
764
00:49:29,174 --> 00:49:30,926
[Edgar] He came to Palmeiras.
765
00:49:31,468 --> 00:49:36,390
He approached the guy who was marking
him from the youth team…
766
00:49:36,390 --> 00:49:38,392
and asked "How much do you earn?"
767
00:49:38,392 --> 00:49:41,812
The guy told him so he said "I'll give you
double that if you injure me."
768
00:49:43,105 --> 00:49:46,858
Training started and the guy slide tackled him
and injured him.
769
00:49:46,858 --> 00:49:50,028
Then when his contract was
ending they extended it.
770
00:49:52,698 --> 00:49:57,995
[Kaiser] I arrived at Puebla on a 3 year contract
but I was sent on loan to America FC.
771
00:49:58,829 --> 00:50:03,375
and the club president came to me and said "Fuck man you never play!"
772
00:50:03,792 --> 00:50:08,422
"I have the note here and they've finally
found what my problem is."
773
00:50:08,422 --> 00:50:10,924
"It's a dental issue." Pure lies.
774
00:50:12,759 --> 00:50:15,262
- [Narrator] Many people will
wonder why football clubs
775
00:50:15,262 --> 00:50:16,847
would fall for this.
776
00:50:16,847 --> 00:50:19,141
The first rule for any
good business person
777
00:50:19,141 --> 00:50:21,643
is to check your employees' references.
778
00:50:21,643 --> 00:50:24,438
However, in some respects,
Kaiser's references
779
00:50:24,438 --> 00:50:26,273
were very good.
780
00:50:26,273 --> 00:50:29,484
Okay, he couldn't deliver on the pitch,
781
00:50:29,484 --> 00:50:32,863
but he certainly delivered off it.
782
00:50:32,863 --> 00:50:35,866
And his particular skills
were just what was needed
783
00:50:35,866 --> 00:50:36,908
at Botafogo.

00:50:39,244 --> 00:50:40,704
[MUSIC Sonizeira : "Bam Bam Bam"]
785
00:50:40,704 --> 00:50:43,457
[Narrator] Castor de Andrade's shady work history
786
00:50:43,457 --> 00:50:45,500
and controlling interest in Bangu
787
00:50:45,500 --> 00:50:48,962
wasn't a unique combination
in 1980s Brazil.
788
00:50:48,962 --> 00:50:52,716
There were other bicheiros
involved in Rio football.
789
00:50:55,093 --> 00:50:57,304
Emil Pinheiro was just like Castor de Andrade.
790
00:50:57,888 --> 00:51:00,515
An absurdly wealthy man.
791
00:51:01,308 --> 00:51:06,354
[Emil] Top players probably earn more
than the President of Brazil.
792
00:51:06,897 --> 00:51:11,443
[Martha Esteves] Emil was more of a small time
bicheiro, and Castor was big league.
793
00:51:11,443 --> 00:51:15,405
He wasn't volatile or short tempered like Castor.
794
00:51:16,573 --> 00:51:20,535
Doctor Emil was really funny. He
was tiny. He was really short.
795
00:51:20,869 --> 00:51:22,329
And he wore a little wig...
796
00:51:22,370 --> 00:51:24,664
that would occasionally fall out of place.
797
00:51:25,832 --> 00:51:29,294
They needed to launder money
they'd earned illegally.
798
00:51:29,294 --> 00:51:32,589
And part of that money went into football.
799
00:51:32,589 --> 00:51:38,386
Legend has it that Pinheiro bought
off linesmen and referees.
800
00:51:40,764 --> 00:51:42,140
- [Narrator] Emil had wanted to be part
801
00:51:42,140 --> 00:51:44,101
of football for years
802
00:51:44,101 --> 00:51:46,728
and his old friend, Castor, helped him
803
00:51:46,728 --> 00:51:49,356
get the right introductions to Botafogo.
804
00:51:50,732 --> 00:51:53,318
The club hadn't won a
thing since the '70s,
805
00:51:53,318 --> 00:51:56,446
but Emil's briefcases of
cash and a favor from Castor
806
00:51:56,446 --> 00:51:58,115
changed all that.
807
00:51:59,116 --> 00:52:02,369
Despite being the bigger
bichiero, Castor owed Emil
808
00:52:02,369 --> 00:52:06,248
a lot of money and rather
than start an unnecessary
809
00:52:06,248 --> 00:52:08,416
turf war, he just let
a lot of Bangu players
810
00:52:08,416 --> 00:52:11,545
join Emil's revolution in Boafogo.
811
00:52:11,545 --> 00:52:15,757
The result, a 1989 state's championship.
812
00:52:15,757 --> 00:52:21,054
(Brazilian Soccer commentary)
813
00:52:24,391 --> 00:52:27,144
[Mauricio] God had a purpose for me with that goal.
814
00:52:29,813 --> 00:52:34,526
I brought joy to millions of Botafogo fans.
815
00:52:34,526 --> 00:52:37,195
This title is for my aunt…
816
00:52:37,195 --> 00:52:39,156
and for my mum watching at home.
817
00:52:40,991 --> 00:52:44,327
Emil Pinheiro was crucial to that victory.
818
00:52:44,703 --> 00:52:47,080
I can now die peacefully.
819
00:52:47,956 --> 00:52:49,332
- [Narrator] Having
been patron of the club
820
00:52:49,332 --> 00:52:52,669
for only a year, winning the
title meant instant success
821
00:52:52,669 --> 00:52:54,171
For Emil...
822
00:52:54,171 --> 00:52:59,009
To an outsider, it was almost
as if he had a secret weapon.
823
00:52:59,843 --> 00:53:02,220
Can I say what actually happened
or will it be censored?
824
00:53:02,679 --> 00:53:04,681
Is this film for over 18s?
825
00:53:04,681 --> 00:53:07,017
Can I explain exactly what happened?
826
00:53:07,934 --> 00:53:08,935
Very well…
827
00:53:09,394 --> 00:53:12,189
Emil Pinheiro wasn't around
for the Viagra boom.
828
00:53:12,647 --> 00:53:15,066
(Bam Bam Bam music continues0
829
00:53:15,108 --> 00:53:17,360
Being the age he was…
830
00:53:17,861 --> 00:53:20,572
impotence was a reality. Sexual impotence.
831
00:53:21,031 --> 00:53:22,949
So at the time there was…
832
00:53:23,825 --> 00:53:26,620
a prosthetic surgical procedure.
833
00:53:26,620 --> 00:53:28,371
It was the hot topic.
834
00:53:28,371 --> 00:53:30,582
Doctor Emil's bionic penis.
835
00:53:30,582 --> 00:53:34,628
[Claudio Cafe] I took him to get that prosthetic implant…
836
00:53:34,628 --> 00:53:38,048
and it made him really happy
837
00:53:38,757 --> 00:53:40,675
I'm sure he died happy.
838
00:53:41,301 --> 00:53:44,804
And I teased him saying "Doctor Emil
you must be over the moon..."
839
00:53:44,804 --> 00:53:48,141
"because I heard you have a new penis."
840
00:53:48,141 --> 00:53:51,019
And Emil would wear these
kind of baggy trousers…
841
00:53:51,019 --> 00:53:53,563
so his thing was king of swaying.
842
00:53:53,563 --> 00:53:55,315
It looked like a piece of wood.
843
00:53:57,192 --> 00:54:02,322
We started to joke with him saying that he had a permanent erection
844
00:54:02,322 --> 00:54:06,618
He would go away and I would say
"Guys, I think Emil's penis is bent..."
845
00:54:06,618 --> 00:54:09,704
"because he always returns from the
bathroom cleaning his glasses."
846
00:54:11,122 --> 00:54:13,208
Emil made a point of showing it off.
847
00:54:13,208 --> 00:54:17,629
Botafogo had gone ten games without a win.
848
00:54:18,338 --> 00:54:22,133
Emil sat down at the table with the cameras watching.
849
00:54:22,717 --> 00:54:25,470
Since I was the most experienced,
I came forward and said…
850
00:54:25,470 --> 00:54:26,429
"President..."
851
00:54:26,429 --> 00:54:28,640
"Botofogo haven't won in ten games."
852
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:31,268
"What do you have to say about a crisis at Botafogo?"
853
00:54:32,018 --> 00:54:35,313
Emil drummed his fingers on the table...
854
00:54:35,313 --> 00:54:38,316
and in that hoarse voice of his said...
855
00:54:38,316 --> 00:54:39,693
"Sergio Americo..."
856
00:54:39,693 --> 00:54:41,569
" I've looked in the drawer..."
857
00:54:42,028 --> 00:54:43,738
"I've looked in the cupboards..."
858
00:54:44,614 --> 00:54:45,991
"I've looked on the floor..."
859
00:54:46,741 --> 00:54:49,869
"and I couldn't find the Botafogo crisis that you're talking about."
860
00:54:50,620 --> 00:54:54,332
Then he grabbed his prosthetic penis and looked at me...
861
00:54:55,333 --> 00:54:56,751
"Sergio Americo..."
862
00:54:56,751 --> 00:55:00,380
"The Crisis is here!"
863
00:55:02,173 --> 00:55:04,426
(laughing)
864
00:55:06,094 --> 00:55:08,471
I can't take it. I swear to God.
865
00:55:08,471 --> 00:55:11,599
I actually think I saw his dick accidentally…
866
00:55:11,599 --> 00:55:13,435
because he would wear these tight chinos…
867
00:55:13,435 --> 00:55:16,521
and he was always sat with his dick like this.
868
00:55:16,521 --> 00:55:19,607
I would say "Guys, that dick is wrong!"
869
00:55:20,567 --> 00:55:22,319
- [Narrator] It's no
good having a new penis
870
00:55:22,319 --> 00:55:25,363
if you haven't got anyone to use it with.
871
00:55:25,363 --> 00:55:28,908
It is here that Kaiser's
unique skills as a professional
872
00:55:28,908 --> 00:55:31,036
footballer can be fully appreciated.
873
00:55:31,995 --> 00:55:34,539
[Kaiser] Emil Pinheiro had a prosthetic penis…
874
00:55:35,540 --> 00:55:38,752
I was always introducing him to women
and I would say to him…
875
00:55:39,794 --> 00:55:43,173
"What do you have that makes all these
women want to sleep with you?"
876
00:55:43,173 --> 00:55:46,259
And so he warmed to me.
877
00:55:46,259 --> 00:55:48,303
So long as I stayed tight with the President…
878
00:55:49,054 --> 00:55:51,973
I could stay at the club until he
wanted me to leave.
879
00:55:51,973 --> 00:55:57,645
If you get a guy like that who
knows how to talk…
880
00:55:57,645 --> 00:56:00,023
He would pull his pants down for him. He was that good.
881
00:56:00,023 --> 00:56:01,441
He would roll out a red carpet for him.
882
00:56:01,441 --> 00:56:05,362
As far as the fans were concerned
he was a Botafogo player
883
00:56:05,862 --> 00:56:07,155
He always hung out with the players…
884
00:56:08,031 --> 00:56:09,032
was close with the directors.
885
00:56:09,532 --> 00:56:12,619
And Kaiser stayed for 5 years in Botafogo.
886
00:56:13,370 --> 00:56:16,331
[MUSIC William Onebeyor "Body and Soul"]
887
00:56:16,331 --> 00:56:18,958
88, '89, '90, '91, '92... Five years.
888
00:56:21,211 --> 00:56:23,046
He was the class pimp.
889
00:56:26,508 --> 00:56:28,051
[Kaiser] If Pele scored 1000 goals…
890
00:56:28,051 --> 00:56:31,179
Renato and I scored 2000 with women.
891
00:56:32,222 --> 00:56:36,059
I can't name any players because
they're married.
892
00:56:36,935 --> 00:56:39,354
But it was a non-stop slut bonanza.
893
00:56:39,354 --> 00:56:42,732
If you're in Rio de Janeiro, you can't
trust the players at all…
894
00:56:42,732 --> 00:56:45,068
because our culture is completely different.
895
00:56:45,068 --> 00:56:49,239
Here it's about samba, partying,
women and football.
896
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:54,327
Give them an inch and they'll
take a mile, that's how it is.
897
00:56:56,621 --> 00:57:00,917
He travelled with us and he would
always arrive at the hotels...
898
00:57:00,917 --> 00:57:02,627
in Sao Paulo and Belo Horizonte.
899
00:57:02,627 --> 00:57:06,131
And I only later found out why Kaiser
travelled with the team.
900
00:57:09,175 --> 00:57:12,512
[Kaiser] My currency was what most people
had difficulty getting hold of.
901
00:57:13,721 --> 00:57:19,018
I found out what you needed and
would exploit that need.
902
00:57:20,645 --> 00:57:23,106
Your weak point. What you like.
903
00:57:26,067 --> 00:57:28,486
[Buffalo Gil] He had the whole Botafogo tracksuit…
904
00:57:28,486 --> 00:57:31,197
so when he got to the hotel he would
say "I play for Botafogo."
905
00:57:33,741 --> 00:57:35,994
He would take 5 or 6 women…
906
00:57:35,994 --> 00:57:38,830
and put them up in the same hotel
as the Botafogo team.
907
00:57:46,004 --> 00:57:50,425
So he puts them all on the fifth
floor and we're on the sixth.
908
00:57:51,176 --> 00:57:54,387
You can't keep guard at midnight.
You wouldn't sleep.
909
00:57:59,476 --> 00:58:01,019
[Kaiser] When the director said…
910
00:58:01,019 --> 00:58:02,896
"You have to be in bed by 10pm"
we'd say "Great."
911
00:58:02,896 --> 00:58:05,106
Nobody complained at all. Nobody moaned.
912
00:58:09,110 --> 00:58:11,279
[Gil] hey just went down one floor…
913
00:58:11,946 --> 00:58:15,533
and the players would have their orgy.
914
00:58:23,082 --> 00:58:25,126
I found out about this many years later.
915
00:58:25,126 --> 00:58:27,837
If I'd known, I would have kicked
them out of the hotel.
916
00:58:29,672 --> 00:58:31,341
He acted as a pimp.
917
00:58:32,926 --> 00:58:35,553
He earned money bringing
women to the players.
918
00:58:37,055 --> 00:58:38,890
[Kaiser] Whatever women the guys wanted…
919
00:58:38,890 --> 00:58:41,851
I would bring to them no problem.
920
00:58:41,851 --> 00:58:44,687
Whether it was for directors or players..
921
00:58:46,773 --> 00:58:48,316
If you have money or women...
922
00:58:49,359 --> 00:58:50,652
you're the man.
923
00:58:51,903 --> 00:58:54,239
[Gil] Emil knew about the whole situation…
924
00:58:54,239 --> 00:58:59,536
and he couldn't say anything because
if it got out to the press...
925
00:58:59,536 --> 00:59:01,287
it would become a global scandal.
926
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:04,207
Because we knew that he arranged
women for Emil.
927
00:59:06,398 --> 00:59:08,810
He's up with God now because
he died a long time ago...
928
00:59:08,810 --> 00:59:10,248
but everybody knew that he supplied him.
929
00:59:11,793 --> 00:59:14,388
[Kaiser] My loan with Emil ended up getting renewed.
930
00:59:15,451 --> 00:59:16,219
All the time.
931
00:59:16,219 --> 00:59:18,562
It would end and he would renew it.
It would end and he'd renew it.
932
00:59:18,562 --> 00:59:21,260
You've spoken to serious guys...
933
00:59:21,260 --> 00:59:23,612
Alexandre Torres, Bebeto...
934
00:59:23,614 --> 00:59:26,214
all the rest played for Kaiser FC.
935
00:59:26,805 --> 00:59:29,306
I think KFC in the USA was named after me.
936
00:59:30,546 --> 00:59:32,476
Director, scout…
937
00:59:33,461 --> 00:59:34,794
whoremonger...
938
00:59:34,794 --> 00:59:36,094
he was everything imaginable...
939
00:59:36,094 --> 00:59:37,492
but he didn't play.
940
00:59:39,895 --> 00:59:41,923
I've slept with older women for money.
941
00:59:41,923 --> 00:59:44,799
When I was 20 and they were 45, 50, 60...
942
00:59:44,799 --> 00:59:48,363
I've slept with a 70 year old. With no Viagra.
943
00:59:48,363 --> 00:59:50,647
Smashing a pretty girl is easy.
944
00:59:50,647 --> 00:59:53,208
Try sleeping with a granny and getting her off.
945
00:59:53,208 --> 00:59:54,631
You've got to have talent.
946
00:59:54,887 --> 00:59:55,631
(moaning)
947
00:59:55,631 --> 00:59:57,920
(slapping.)
948
00:59:59,279 --> 01:00:00,973
Sex is my hobby.
949
01:00:01,642 --> 01:00:04,616
My dream as a little boy wasn't
to go to Disneyland…
950
01:00:04,616 --> 01:00:07,156
it was to go to Amsterdam, the land of smut.
951
01:00:07,649 --> 01:00:08,476
What would I do?
952
01:00:10,110 --> 01:00:12,651
Go on the ghost train? Meet Mickey?
953
01:00:12,651 --> 01:00:14,478
That doesn't turn me on.
954
01:00:14,478 --> 01:00:15,920
I'd rather meet Mickey's wife.
955
01:00:17,101 --> 01:00:18,101
Minnie.
956
01:00:18,531 --> 01:00:21,229
If she's hot, I'll give her a squirt.
957
01:00:21,229 --> 01:00:23,356
My hobby is sex.
958
01:00:23,356 --> 01:00:26,724
I have a disease like they say Michael Douglas has.
959
01:00:26,724 --> 01:00:29,855
I'm super nice to people I date...
960
01:00:29,855 --> 01:00:34,050
but after three months... Big hug. See you later.
961
01:00:39,381 --> 01:00:41,773
They're doing a documentary on me…
962
01:00:41,773 --> 01:00:43,314
Interesting.
963
01:00:43,314 --> 01:00:46,826
These English guys came over to make
a documentary about me…
964
01:00:46,826 --> 01:00:50,757
as a trainer and an ex-footballer.
965
01:00:50,757 --> 01:00:53,267
I'm not a teacher. I'm a personal trainer.
966
01:00:53,267 --> 01:00:55,320
So I'll get you looking like a Carnival Queen.
967
01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:56,734
I'm really keen.
968
01:00:57,534 --> 01:01:00,221
It's charisma.
969
01:01:00,221 --> 01:01:05,020
Women like attention from men.
970
01:01:05,020 --> 01:01:08,532
A lot of my students have ugly
faces but great bodies…
971
01:01:08,532 --> 01:01:10,513
But you're really pretty.
972
01:01:10,513 --> 01:01:13,659
He gave them that. He was a sweet talker.
973
01:01:13,659 --> 01:01:17,752
He's an upbeat and extrovert guy.
974
01:01:17,752 --> 01:01:19,195
What woman doesn't like that?
975
01:01:19,512 --> 01:01:22,411
And if you've got ten friends
you can bring them too.
976
01:01:23,862 --> 01:01:25,540
[Renato Mendes] He is like an illusionist.
977
01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:33,617
If you let him talk, he would very quickly
make you believe his story.
978
01:01:33,617 --> 01:01:37,658
Going to Bulgaria, a woman
costs as much as a coffee.
979
01:01:37,658 --> 01:01:41,666
He has enough stories to fill
a book. A thick book.
980
01:01:41,666 --> 01:01:43,080
Oh parties…
981
01:01:44,064 --> 01:01:46,485
you know with the Italian Prime Minister…
982
01:01:46,485 --> 01:01:47,665
lots of orgies.
983
01:01:47,665 --> 01:01:50,049
Kaiser has a lot of stories…
984
01:01:50,049 --> 01:01:52,371
I think those stories create the legend.
985
01:01:52,371 --> 01:01:57,707
"I went to the Oscars after-party
at Robert De Niro's house"
986
01:01:57,707 --> 01:02:00,311
He went out with Ivete Sangalo,
they had dinner.
987
01:02:00,311 --> 01:02:04,403
His stories got players dreaming.
988
01:02:04,403 --> 01:02:07,193
I think that's why people liked him so much.
989
01:02:07,193 --> 01:02:10,688
(grand orchestral music)
990
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:15,147
[Kaiser] When I arrived at Ajaccio...
991
01:02:15,148 --> 01:02:16,493
He would always talk about Ajaccio.
992
01:02:16,493 --> 01:02:18,762
It was my first week in Corsica...
993
01:02:20,153 --> 01:02:22,414
They gave me a girl as a present.
994
01:02:22,414 --> 01:02:23,893
When I got to El Paso...
995
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:25,339
(Gun firing)
996
01:02:25,339 --> 01:02:28,609
They gave me a beautiful blonde
prostitute as a present.
997
01:02:28,609 --> 01:02:31,712
"I had played such a good game..."
998
01:02:31,712 --> 01:02:34,848
"the chairman sent for me and said..."
999
01:02:34,848 --> 01:02:36,182
"Here's my Ferrari..."
1000
01:02:37,498 --> 01:02:38,671
"and my secretary."
1001
01:02:39,172 --> 01:02:40,656
"Beautiful, beautiful..."
1002
01:02:40,656 --> 01:02:41,833
"a beautiful blonde."
1003
01:02:42,900 --> 01:02:46,482
And the younger players who didn't know him...
1004
01:02:46,838 --> 01:02:49,040
all ears waiting for what he was going to say.
1005
01:02:50,475 --> 01:02:51,742
"What's it like driving a Ferrari?"
1006
01:02:51,742 --> 01:02:53,250
"I'll tell you later."
1007
01:02:56,150 --> 01:02:58,146
If I'm not mistaken…
1008
01:02:58,146 --> 01:03:00,548
she acted in a famous French soap.
1009
01:03:01,861 --> 01:03:04,664
With Kaiser, I don't know when
he's telling the truth.
1010
01:03:04,664 --> 01:03:06,621
I couldn't communicate with her.
1011
01:03:08,979 --> 01:03:11,159
If you tell the same lie four times…
1012
01:03:11,159 --> 01:03:12,472
it becomes the truth.
1013
01:03:15,302 --> 01:03:18,244
"So I drove up to the mountains..."
1014
01:03:18,672 --> 01:03:20,958
We went from motel to motel…
1015
01:03:20,958 --> 01:03:23,730
[Bebeto] He was engrossed in his own stories…
1016
01:03:23,730 --> 01:03:27,267
that you'd feel bad calling him out…
1017
01:03:27,267 --> 01:03:29,091
"No Kaiser, you're lying mate."
1018
01:03:29,091 --> 01:03:30,270
"You're lying."
1019
01:03:32,845 --> 01:03:34,405
[Kaiser] We managed to get in somewhere…
1020
01:03:34,405 --> 01:03:37,066
and I paid upfront.
1021
01:03:37,066 --> 01:03:38,356
"she was loving it..."
1022
01:03:38,356 --> 01:03:40,892
"and I was wanting to seal the deal..."
1023
01:03:40,892 --> 01:03:42,782
She signalled that she couldn't fuck me...
1024
01:03:42,782 --> 01:03:44,673
because she was on her period.
1025
01:03:44,673 --> 01:03:45,755
"On the rag."
1026
01:03:45,755 --> 01:03:48,708
I remember exactly how he said it…
1027
01:03:48,708 --> 01:03:50,387
"On the rag."
1028
01:03:50,387 --> 01:03:53,738
"We can't play today because the
pitch is waterlogged."
1029
01:03:53,738 --> 01:03:55,790
And the lads were like "Oh what an anti-climax."
1030
01:04:01,863 --> 01:04:03,628
So I mimed to her......
1031
01:04:03,628 --> 01:04:06,542
So I tell her that as I'm such
a good sportsman…
1032
01:04:06,542 --> 01:04:08,361
That as I'm such a good sportsman…
1033
01:04:08,361 --> 01:04:10,385
"When the pitch is wet I can shoot
from behind the goal."
1034
01:04:10,385 --> 01:04:14,367
"When the pitch is wet I can shoot
from behind the goal."
1035
01:04:14,945 --> 01:04:18,921
[MUSIC] French national anthem.
1036
01:04:18,921 --> 01:04:21,146
The lads couldn't contain themselves.
1037
01:04:21,146 --> 01:04:24,126
Everyone cheering like it was a goal.
1038
01:04:28,105 --> 01:04:29,685
How are you going to translate that?
1039
01:04:30,886 --> 01:04:33,021
That definately didn't happen.
1040
01:04:33,667 --> 01:04:38,545
[MUSIC] Bezerra da Silva "Malandradgem da um tempo"
1041
01:04:48,532 --> 01:04:51,402
- [Narrator] A good
story is a powerful tool,
1042
01:04:51,402 --> 01:04:54,005
especially if it's told convincingly
1043
01:04:54,005 --> 01:04:56,718
to a young starstruck fan
1044
01:04:56,718 --> 01:04:58,542
who wants to become the girlfriend
1045
01:04:58,542 --> 01:05:00,849
of the famous Carlos Kaiser.
1046
01:05:03,207 --> 01:05:05,454
[Valeria] He isn't Kaiser to me…
1047
01:05:05,454 --> 01:05:07,233
he is Carlos Henrique to me.
1048
01:05:07,233 --> 01:05:10,970
I think I'm the only person who calls him 'Carlos'.
1049
01:05:10,970 --> 01:05:14,252
Back then he was a Vasco player.
1050
01:05:14,252 --> 01:05:18,567
It's incredible. I never saw Carlos train, I never saw Carlos play…
1051
01:05:18,567 --> 01:05:20,080
unless it was on video.
1052
01:05:23,955 --> 01:05:25,828
And I think it was Vasco vs Botafogo.
1053
01:05:25,828 --> 01:05:29,398
He came on from the bench, dribbled…
1054
01:05:30,100 --> 01:05:31,934
and scored an amazing goal.
1055
01:05:31,934 --> 01:05:33,364
[Commentator] Goal for Vasco.
1056
01:05:33,364 --> 01:05:35,278
Take another look at that great skill by Henrique!
1057
01:05:35,278 --> 01:05:36,682
Perfect run…
1058
01:05:36,682 --> 01:05:38,981
followed by a clinical finish. 1-0 to Vasco.
1059
01:05:39,937 --> 01:05:42,180
[Dror Niv] He always said that he was a centre half
1060
01:05:42,180 --> 01:05:45,146
He would say that he scored a
winning goal for Vasco.
1061
01:05:46,121 --> 01:05:47,740
They had a centre half called Henrique…
1062
01:05:48,726 --> 01:05:50,952
and since he is called Carlos Henrique it might have been him.
1063
01:05:52,508 --> 01:05:55,369
[Alexandre Couto] There was another Henrique who played
for Vasco and looked a lot like him.
1064
01:05:56,115 --> 01:05:58,665
He had the same physique as him.
1065
01:05:58,665 --> 01:06:02,283
He gave me a VHS tape and I
think I still have that tape.
1066
01:06:02,283 --> 01:06:04,994
I can show it to you but it's priceless...
1067
01:06:05,772 --> 01:06:07,663
because not even he has it anymore.
1068
01:06:07,663 --> 01:06:09,042
[Interviewer] Don't take this the wrong way…
1069
01:06:09,042 --> 01:06:11,712
but are you sure it was actually
him scoring the goal?
1070
01:06:12,246 --> 01:06:13,246
Yes.
1071
01:06:14,247 --> 01:06:15,247
I'm sure.
1072
01:06:16,087 --> 01:06:18,600
How do you mean? I didn't get the question.
1073
01:06:24,984 --> 01:06:28,993
He had a DVD of his highlights.
1074
01:06:28,993 --> 01:06:30,286
I don't know how.
1075
01:06:30,775 --> 01:06:33,155
He never showed me but he told me
that there are goals of his on it.
1076
01:06:34,134 --> 01:06:35,602
I don't understand.
1077
01:06:36,083 --> 01:06:38,928
I don't know if he put his head
on somebody else's body.
1078
01:06:40,985 --> 01:06:42,720
- [Narrator] Pretending
to be a Vasco player
1079
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:44,467
is relatively easy.
1080
01:06:44,467 --> 01:06:47,742
Actually becoming one is
another thing entirely.
1081
01:06:48,765 --> 01:06:51,146
Especially at a time when Vasco's players
1082
01:06:51,146 --> 01:06:53,937
made up a large part of the national side.
1083
01:06:55,517 --> 01:06:56,765
[Bebeto] He was at Vasco with me too
1084
01:06:57,362 --> 01:06:58,578
Same kind of faking.
1085
01:06:59,357 --> 01:07:01,770
I already knew Kaiser from the Flamengo days.
1086
01:07:02,182 --> 01:07:05,742
But I didn't say anything. When he came there
I didn't say anything.
1087
01:07:08,011 --> 01:07:13,345
He turned up at Vasco with another player
who he was friends with.
1088
01:07:13,345 --> 01:07:17,060
We began a friendship with him…
1089
01:07:17,060 --> 01:07:22,018
and we started to encourage him
to work and train at Vasco...
1090
01:07:22,018 --> 01:07:25,533
something which never happened
because he was always injured.
1091
01:07:25,978 --> 01:07:29,425
(light orchestral music)
1092
01:07:30,755 --> 01:07:33,421
- [Narrator] After six
month's of Kaiser's injuries,
1093
01:07:33,421 --> 01:07:35,899
Vasco had exhausted all
the traditional methods
1094
01:07:35,899 --> 01:07:37,356
of treatment.
1095
01:07:37,356 --> 01:07:41,432
was divine intervention.
1096
01:07:42,859 --> 01:07:44,908
The black magic priest Pai Santana…
1097
01:07:44,908 --> 01:07:48,319
performed rituals on me so
my bruises would heal.
1098
01:07:50,277 --> 01:07:52,359
Because we wanted to get him on the pitch…
1099
01:07:52,359 --> 01:07:57,089
we would ask Pai Santana
to call upon the Gods…
1100
01:07:57,089 --> 01:07:59,714
to get Kaiser to train.
1101
01:08:00,871 --> 01:08:05,053
Pai Santana had all his spells.
1102
01:08:05,342 --> 01:08:07,032
And he went to work on him there.
1103
01:08:07,922 --> 01:08:10,189
I already knew he was faking it.
1104
01:08:10,746 --> 01:08:14,686
[Kaiser] I went up to him and said
"Take your money, mate."
1105
01:08:14,686 --> 01:08:18,156
"There's nothing wrong with me. Take your money
and don't bother doing your thing..."
1106
01:08:18,156 --> 01:08:20,803
"I intend to stay injured for the rest of my life."
1107
01:08:22,691 --> 01:08:24,562
That was such a funny day.
1108
01:08:25,762 --> 01:08:27,898
- [Narrator] Pai Santana had failed.
1109
01:08:27,898 --> 01:08:31,524
Kaiser had even managed
to defeat the gods.
1110
01:08:31,524 --> 01:08:34,460
But he was now a Vasco
player and he wanted
1111
01:08:34,460 --> 01:08:35,772
to let everyone know.
1112
01:08:35,772 --> 01:08:39,284
Not on the pitch of
course, but on Brazil's
1113
01:08:39,284 --> 01:08:41,497
biggest football analysis program,
1114
01:08:41,497 --> 01:08:42,587
Mesa Redonda,
1115
01:08:43,466 --> 01:08:46,261
broadcast to millions every Sunday night.
1116
01:08:47,217 --> 01:08:49,341
This was primetime television.
1117
01:08:49,341 --> 01:08:51,405
Only the best would appear on this show.
1118
01:08:52,561 --> 01:08:55,942
I spent 14 years on that timeslot.
1119
01:08:57,009 --> 01:09:01,935
At the table during Mesa Redonda
there were a lot of guests.
1120
01:09:01,935 --> 01:09:06,202
The big players like Romario, Edmundo, Renato…
1121
01:09:06,202 --> 01:09:08,477
They never refused to come on.
1122
01:09:08,477 --> 01:09:10,702
So Carlos Kaiser is a footballer.
1123
01:09:10,702 --> 01:09:12,971
He had a stint at Vasco…
1124
01:09:12,971 --> 01:09:15,565
and he's still contracted to
a club in Corsica.
1125
01:09:15,565 --> 01:09:21,527
So I don't remember that character.
Do you have a video?
1126
01:09:21,527 --> 01:09:24,752
I'd been at Ajaccio for two seasons
but I wanted to come back here.
1127
01:09:24,752 --> 01:09:26,320
That's when I came to Vasco.
1128
01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:30,391
I researched him. He said he played for Flamengo.
1129
01:09:30,391 --> 01:09:33,772
How would I not have heard of him if
he'd played for Flamengo?
1130
01:09:33,772 --> 01:09:36,953
So we finally found a place, and she
turned to me and said…
1131
01:09:36,953 --> 01:09:38,452
she was in that period.
1132
01:09:38,452 --> 01:09:41,510
It's so sad that period that girls go through.
1133
01:09:41,510 --> 01:09:44,235
There's a term that football
commentators use which is…
1134
01:09:44,235 --> 01:09:46,115
"a player the fans don't notice."
1135
01:09:46,115 --> 01:09:49,045
Kaiser was never noticed by the fans
1136
01:09:49,045 --> 01:09:51,648
"When the pitch is wet I can shoot
from behind the goal."
1137
01:09:53,283 --> 01:09:56,748
Nowadays if a proposal like
that came to us…
1138
01:09:56,748 --> 01:09:59,478
we'd go on Google and investigate.
1139
01:09:59,923 --> 01:10:03,527
(speaking portuguese)
1140
01:10:09,622 --> 01:10:13,003
[Music] Gotan Project - Vuelvo Al Sur
1141
01:10:37,195 --> 01:10:40,323
We're at the Clube dos Macacos in Horto…
1142
01:10:40,323 --> 01:10:42,274
in the south zone of Rio de Janeiro.
1143
01:10:42,274 --> 01:10:47,971
and it's a very famous club where people come
to play football at the weekend.
1144
01:10:47,971 --> 01:10:50,488
Not that many people come here…
1145
01:10:50,488 --> 01:10:55,786
but it was somewhere Kaiser used to come a lot.
1146
01:10:58,361 --> 01:11:02,438
When I went to France in 1986
I came back for the holidays.
1147
01:11:02,438 --> 01:11:06,497
My brother was living in my apartment
and was good friends with Kaiser…
1148
01:11:06,497 --> 01:11:09,381
and he started to get close to me…
1149
01:11:09,381 --> 01:11:15,203
and asked if I had a souvenir from
Ajaccio like a shirt or a card…
1150
01:11:15,203 --> 01:11:18,540
something that he could relate to football.
1151
01:11:18,540 --> 01:11:22,360
Then we became friends and
went to nightclubs...
1152
01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:27,277
And he started saying that he was
an Ajaccio player with me.
1153
01:11:30,614 --> 01:11:36,536
And it was right where he took those
photos as if he were training at Ajaccio.
1154
01:11:37,977 --> 01:11:40,763
You can see in those photos that it's exactly this same pitch.
1155
01:11:40,763 --> 01:11:44,578
Some things have changed but it's mostly
the same with all the trees
1156
01:11:45,885 --> 01:11:49,016
Anybody in the industry would
know that it was a fake.
1157
01:11:49,638 --> 01:11:51,774
First of all, he's wearing a match shirt.
1158
01:11:51,774 --> 01:11:55,867
A training shirt isn't for a match. You're not going
to train with a match shirt.
1159
01:11:56,734 --> 01:11:59,115
Obviously a professional footballer
would look at the pictures..
1160
01:11:59,115 --> 01:12:00,738
and just see him in the photo.
1161
01:12:00,738 --> 01:12:03,995
It looks kind of weird
because at training...
1162
01:12:03,995 --> 01:12:06,331
you usually have loads of players around.
1163
01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:12,408
All the little tricks and mannerisms
the professional players had…
1164
01:12:12,408 --> 01:12:16,124
he was already using.
1165
01:12:16,124 --> 01:12:19,627
Let's imagine that he was
studying for a degree
1166
01:12:19,627 --> 01:12:25,452
He would have nailed the theory
side of being a footballer.
1167
01:12:28,210 --> 01:12:31,536
Really funny. Him calling for the ball.
1168
01:12:32,470 --> 01:12:35,362
Pass the fucking ball!
1169
01:12:43,325 --> 01:12:48,163
From now on I would rather
tell the complete truth.
1170
01:12:49,284 --> 01:12:54,358
Kaiser never set foot in Ajaccio,
not in the city or the airport.
1171
01:12:57,751 --> 01:12:59,800
(city sounds)
1172
01:13:03,025 --> 01:13:05,178
(tapping)
1173
01:13:18,296 --> 01:13:21,511
After the first few recordings we did…
1174
01:13:21,511 --> 01:13:25,198
he called me the following day
and asked if you guys…
1175
01:13:25,198 --> 01:13:28,156
had actually come and done
an interview with me.
1176
01:13:28,156 --> 01:13:31,242
I told him I had and that I'd told the truth.
1177
01:13:31,242 --> 01:13:35,202
I have my own reputation to think about
I worked and lived there for five years...
1178
01:13:35,783 --> 01:13:40,840
and I can't tarnish my name to
promote Carlos Kaiser's lie.
1179
01:13:40,841 --> 01:13:43,546
He got really pissed off and didn't call me again.
1180
01:13:51,116 --> 01:13:53,343
He denies it now so if he doesn't admit that fact…
1181
01:13:55,099 --> 01:13:57,167
I'm not going to be the one to…
1182
01:13:59,586 --> 01:14:00,830
dispute that.
1183
01:14:00,830 --> 01:14:00,835
dispute that.
Everybody knows.
1184
01:14:00,835 --> 01:14:02,108
Everybody knows.
1185
01:14:02,742 --> 01:14:06,210
I was taken by a Brazilian called
Fabio Barros, Fabinho.
1186
01:14:06,210 --> 01:14:07,875
It was a Brazilian that recommended me.
1187
01:14:09,675 --> 01:14:12,221
whom I don't even feel like naming anymore.
1188
01:14:13,948 --> 01:14:15,694
He recommended me...
1189
01:14:16,484 --> 01:14:18,191
he oversaw the deal...
1190
01:14:18,191 --> 01:14:20,608
and I ended up going to Corsica. To Ajaccio.
1191
01:14:23,476 --> 01:14:24,476
[dramatic French music]
1192
01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:29,971
[Fabinho] I let him live out his fantasy here in Rio ...
1193
01:14:29,971 --> 01:14:35,045
but to say that he was there is
too much. I can't.
1194
01:14:35,045 --> 01:14:37,252
But I think he still has it stuck in his head.
1195
01:14:37,252 --> 01:14:38,579
He still believes it.
1196
01:14:41,388 --> 01:14:43,671
[Kaiser] When it came to...
1197
01:14:44,998 --> 01:14:48,959
getting the chance to appear alongside
the best players of the era…
1198
01:14:48,959 --> 01:14:51,027
He wanted that.
1199
01:14:51,027 --> 01:14:53,758
[Carlos Alberto] This is Kaiser speaking.
From Rio de Janeiro.
1200
01:14:53,758 --> 01:14:56,958
(laughing)
1201
01:15:00,958 --> 01:15:04,366
If he didn't want to talk about
Ajaccio he should just say so...
1202
01:15:04,366 --> 01:15:06,883
"I don't want to talk about that."
1203
01:15:06,883 --> 01:15:08,483
and that would be that.
1204
01:15:12,791 --> 01:15:16,013
I think Corsica is one of the most
beautiful places on earth.
1205
01:15:16,013 --> 01:15:18,198
He would ask me what life was like in Corsica…
1206
01:15:18,198 --> 01:15:19,397
what the diet was like.
1207
01:15:19,397 --> 01:15:21,382
What the climate was like, what
the club's situation was.
1208
01:15:23,655 --> 01:15:27,051
[Kaiser] I respect and admire Corsica. I think Corsicans…
1209
01:15:28,543 --> 01:15:31,197
are amazing. An oppressed people.
1210
01:15:34,192 --> 01:15:36,811
He could eventually use that information…
1211
01:15:36,811 --> 01:15:40,842
in sporting interviews that he might give.
1212
01:15:40,842 --> 01:15:43,588
I was sold to Ajaccio in Corsica.
1213
01:15:43,588 --> 01:15:45,325
In French it's 'Ajaccienne'
1214
01:15:48,056 --> 01:15:50,589
I have nothing to say about
Corsica and Ajaccio.
1215
01:15:51,857 --> 01:15:55,054
It's a historical city.
1216
01:15:55,054 --> 01:15:57,270
An innately tough people.
1217
01:15:57,270 --> 01:16:00,895
A people that were born
fighting for their values.
1218
01:16:04,241 --> 01:16:07,103
Ajaccio has nothing. Ajaccio is a dead island.
1219
01:16:07,103 --> 01:16:09,331
Speaking about Corsica is difficult.
1220
01:16:09,331 --> 01:16:11,732
"How do they speak there?"
1221
01:16:11,732 --> 01:16:12,764
Comment ca-va?
1222
01:16:12,764 --> 01:16:13,764
Tu va bien?
1223
01:16:13,764 --> 01:16:14,333
Comment ca-va?
1224
01:16:14,341 --> 01:16:15,156
Tu va bien?
1225
01:16:15,156 --> 01:16:16,936
"Je t'aime. I love you"
1226
01:16:16,936 --> 01:16:19,894
Which was the phrase he'd use
with the ladies. "Je t'aime."
1227
01:16:20,484 --> 01:16:21,919
Speaking about Corsica is…
1228
01:16:23,432 --> 01:16:24,677
a double edged sword.
1229
01:16:27,747 --> 01:16:30,928
The moment he asked for the card
I knew what it was for…
1230
01:16:30,928 --> 01:16:32,551
he'd already told me...
1231
01:16:32,551 --> 01:16:36,630
"That card is one of the most important
documents I have in my wallet."
1232
01:16:36,630 --> 01:16:38,913
He knew that was like a status symbol.
1233
01:16:38,913 --> 01:16:41,861
It was like having a footballing contract.
1234
01:16:51,220 --> 01:16:54,423
He knew that in Corsica and in
the south of France…
1235
01:16:54,423 --> 01:16:56,831
there was an Italian influence
from the Corsican Mafia.
1236
01:16:57,148 --> 01:16:58,478
I can't talk about the Corsicans…
1237
01:16:58,939 --> 01:17:02,548
because they'll send somebody
to assassinate me.
1238
01:17:02,548 --> 01:17:06,416
So he made up that Mancini was
part of the Corsican mafia.
1239
01:17:06,416 --> 01:17:08,665
That's all made up. That's not true.
1240
01:17:08,665 --> 01:17:10,584
That's a story created in his head.
1241
01:17:15,033 --> 01:17:16,759
It's a team that always fought.
1242
01:17:18,216 --> 01:17:20,216
A team that even in defeat...
1243
01:17:20,216 --> 01:17:22,348
the players would give everything to win.
1244
01:17:24,662 --> 01:17:25,662
I think Corsica…
1245
01:17:27,152 --> 01:17:28,152
is another world.
1246
01:17:29,321 --> 01:17:30,321
Understood?
1247
01:17:31,934 --> 01:17:36,054
[Fabinho] I can guarantee you that he benefited
a lot more than I did…
1248
01:17:36,054 --> 01:17:39,024
from having played in Corsica.
1249
01:17:39,302 --> 01:17:41,593
I didn't get onto the programmes
he did in Rio...
1250
01:17:41,593 --> 01:17:43,451
or go to the places where he went.
1251
01:17:43,451 --> 01:17:48,030
And then he gave one of the most
famous commentators in Brazil...
1252
01:17:48,030 --> 01:17:50,732
the Ajaccio shirt which I'd given
to him as a present.
1253
01:17:54,847 --> 01:17:59,808
You could even say he was the Fabinho
here in Brazil that I never was.
1254
01:18:04,579 --> 01:18:05,411
[Kaiser] It's difficult.
1255
01:18:07,057 --> 01:18:08,692
You can't understand humans.
1256
01:18:12,874 --> 01:18:15,404
I took part in this documentary
to tell the truth.
1257
01:18:15,944 --> 01:18:17,428
This is a documentary about the truth.
1258
01:18:18,568 --> 01:18:22,027
If you want to talk about a genuine person
I'll talk about Alexandre Couto.
1259
01:18:22,027 --> 01:18:25,350
"Alex, that guy never plays. I already
knew that was going to happen..."
1260
01:18:29,176 --> 01:18:30,861
Everything Alexandre says is true.
1261
01:18:31,790 --> 01:18:33,221
He speaks the truth.
1262
01:18:33,749 --> 01:18:35,242
He's not two-faced.
1263
01:18:35,242 --> 01:18:38,958
It was like a wing of protection around Kaiser.
1264
01:18:39,403 --> 01:18:42,629
It's authentic. Alexandre is genuine.
He's not two-faced.
1265
01:18:55,275 --> 01:18:57,346
[Interviewer] Was kaiser ever at Ajaccio?
1266
01:18:58,141 --> 01:18:58,683
Never.
1267
01:19:11,808 --> 01:19:13,034
He never played for Ajaccio.
1268
01:19:15,103 --> 01:19:17,786
[Fabinho] I did have a conversation with Alexandre
after the first interview he did…
1269
01:19:17,786 --> 01:19:19,849
when he said that you guys
wanted to speak with me.
1270
01:19:19,849 --> 01:19:22,597
And I said "Alexandre, there's only one
way I'm doing that interview."
1271
01:19:22,597 --> 01:19:25,789
"Me telling the truth as far as I know it."
1272
01:19:25,789 --> 01:19:29,765
"I'm not going to be saying things that
really didn't happen there."
1273
01:19:29,765 --> 01:19:32,231
Every player knows that story is a lie.
1274
01:19:32,843 --> 01:19:36,609
Especially because they know
my story and Fabinho's story.
1275
01:19:36,609 --> 01:19:39,861
So they all know he was never at Ajaccio.
1276
01:19:39,867 --> 01:19:41,540
I love Kaiser to bits.
1277
01:19:41,540 --> 01:19:45,116
That's the truth. He became a great
friend for many years.
1278
01:19:45,828 --> 01:19:50,993
And we've always gone out of our
way to indulge his fantasy.
1279
01:19:50,993 --> 01:19:50,994
And we've always gone out of our
way to indulge his fantasy.
He lives off that because his daily bread are these football stories.
1280
01:19:50,994 --> 01:19:56,483
He lives off that because his daily bread are these football stories.
1281
01:19:56,483 --> 01:19:58,173
He lives off that.
1282
01:19:58,173 --> 01:20:02,102
So we sometimes play along
with his fantasy...
1283
01:20:02,102 --> 01:20:07,203
Kaiser is a football fan. He wanted to be
a footballer his whole life.
1284
01:20:07,203 --> 01:20:10,422
and there comes a time when
people have to tell the truth.
1285
01:20:10,422 --> 01:20:12,023
What's true and what isn't.
1286
01:20:12,735 --> 01:20:14,237
What he did and didn't do.
1287
01:20:31,320 --> 01:20:34,328
- [Interviewer] Kaiser. are you a proud man?
1288
01:20:35,640 --> 01:20:36,640
No.
1289
01:20:38,353 --> 01:20:39,437
If I was proud...
1290
01:20:40,816 --> 01:20:43,213
I wouldn't be showing the world my reality...
1291
01:20:44,523 --> 01:20:45,523
which is very different...
1292
01:20:46,888 --> 01:20:48,895
from when I was in football.
1293
01:20:53,299 --> 01:20:56,351
I'm very damaged. I'm a very damaged person.
1294
01:20:58,664 --> 01:21:01,467
That's maybe why I've lived other
people's lives so much...
1295
01:21:02,090 --> 01:21:03,090
of the players.
1296
01:21:05,605 --> 01:21:08,430
It was so I didn't have to stop
and think about my life.
1297
01:21:08,430 --> 01:21:10,457
because if I stopped to think about my life...
1298
01:21:11,302 --> 01:21:13,093
I think I would have done something stupid.
1299
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:17,536
When I was ten my dream was to play football.
1300
01:21:19,758 --> 01:21:22,850
But I wanted to be a footballer to
make money for myself…
1301
01:21:27,388 --> 01:21:30,908
to get out of the dump that I lived in.
1302
01:21:32,821 --> 01:21:37,325
There was so much adversity and
so much back-stabbing.
1303
01:21:39,683 --> 01:21:41,819
You either become a scammer or a sucker.
1304
01:21:44,621 --> 01:21:45,912
My adoptive mum was an alcoholic.
1305
01:21:47,691 --> 01:21:51,937
She died of cirrhosis and she weighed 200 kilos.
1306
01:21:55,719 --> 01:21:58,477
And then I was left with
two elderly aunts…
1307
01:22:00,657 --> 01:22:01,769
very old who were…
1308
01:22:10,578 --> 01:22:12,580
who were cleaning ladies.
1309
01:22:12,580 --> 01:22:14,938
(crying)
1310
01:22:17,852 --> 01:22:22,684
So then I had to take football a bit more
seriously to bring money home…
1311
01:22:22,700 --> 01:22:26,288
so those two women wouldn't suffer.
1312
01:22:32,561 --> 01:22:36,921
Then all of a sudden a girl tells me she's pregnant…
1313
01:22:39,991 --> 01:22:43,149
and my son was born even without living with me.
1314
01:22:46,351 --> 01:22:47,999
I didn't give my son any love.
1315
01:22:50,320 --> 01:22:53,212
I don't think I deserve to be anybody's father.
1316
01:22:54,490 --> 01:22:57,836
I don't deserve to be anybody's son or father.
1317
01:23:01,128 --> 01:23:03,217
I tried to be a normal guy. I tried to get married.
1318
01:23:05,510 --> 01:23:07,376
I tried to have a family life.
1319
01:23:09,117 --> 01:23:10,824
Something I didn't have when I was young.
1320
01:23:15,434 --> 01:23:17,080
And then my son dies.
1321
01:23:18,838 --> 01:23:21,351
Then I get married and my wife dies.
1322
01:23:21,351 --> 01:23:24,021
I get married to another woman and she dies.
1323
01:23:24,021 --> 01:23:27,001
I wake up one day with no sight in one eye.
1324
01:23:29,026 --> 01:23:30,026
Fuck.
1325
01:23:33,475 --> 01:23:35,119
In Buddhism they would say…
1326
01:23:36,520 --> 01:23:39,902
that I lost my vision in order to
see the world a different way.
1327
01:23:43,060 --> 01:23:44,862
People have an image that's completely…
1328
01:23:46,530 --> 01:23:47,865
different from the reality.
1329
01:23:50,290 --> 01:23:53,515
Carlos Henrique is a man.
Carlos Kaiser is a character.
1330
01:23:56,007 --> 01:23:58,978
Carlos Kaiser only exists because
Renato Gaucho exists.
1331
01:24:01,792 --> 01:24:04,600
My mum didn't do a third of
what that guy did for me.
1332
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:06,235
And he doesn't do anything
anymore because...
1333
01:24:07,700 --> 01:24:08,770
I hide myself away.
1334
01:24:09,104 --> 01:24:12,461
Like I was hiding from the producers
of this documentary.
1335
01:24:15,953 --> 01:24:20,024
[Music] Elza Soares : "Comigo"
1336
01:24:56,742 --> 01:24:59,244
[Renato] Whenever I can I help Kaiser out…
1337
01:24:59,244 --> 01:25:03,068
he knows that and there's no ulterior motive.
1338
01:25:05,380 --> 01:25:09,062
There are things that I would avoid
talking about with him...
1339
01:25:09,062 --> 01:25:16,466
for example his son, because I didn't
want to dwell on the subject.
1340
01:25:18,222 --> 01:25:20,986
Him having that photo at home
doesn't surprise me at all...
1341
01:25:20,988 --> 01:25:21,988
being the kind of person he is.
1342
01:25:23,588 --> 01:25:32,785
It's a recognition of the family
that he didn't have.
1343
01:25:33,721 --> 01:25:39,958
That flatters me. That makes me
happy and very moved.
1344
01:25:39,958 --> 01:25:43,884
It's actually difficult to explain it, to talk about.
1345
01:25:44,211 --> 01:25:47,708
Because not everybody says "You're more
important than my family."
1346
01:25:51,883 --> 01:25:53,211
I live one day at time.
1347
01:25:54,733 --> 01:25:58,352
Today you've managed to strip me down.
1348
01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:03,537
Yesterday I was really pissed off because…
1349
01:26:03,537 --> 01:26:05,995
somebody I thought was a friend
denied something.
1350
01:26:05,995 --> 01:26:08,863
Fine. Everybody has their own
fears. I have mine too.
1351
01:26:09,790 --> 01:26:11,585
I can't be criticized…
1352
01:26:13,380 --> 01:26:15,370
or the friendships I had.
1353
01:26:15,370 --> 01:26:17,838
Something good had to come my way.
1354
01:26:17,838 --> 01:26:20,920
I could have exploited the opportunities.
I didn't harm anybody.
1355
01:26:20,920 --> 01:26:24,788
There's not one person. You've interviewed
between 20 to 30 people...
1356
01:26:24,788 --> 01:26:28,995
not one has said that I'm a bad guy,
that I'm a drug addict...
1357
01:26:28,995 --> 01:26:31,180
or that I went into their house and stole.
1358
01:26:31,180 --> 01:26:33,287
I never took anything away from anybody.
1359
01:26:34,029 --> 01:26:35,433
Life stole from me.
1360
01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:38,126
I started by losing my mother.
1361
01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:44,057
Now people think I took this and that.
1362
01:26:45,149 --> 01:26:47,784
To take such a beating...
1363
01:26:48,291 --> 01:26:49,930
I didn't take anything from anybody.
1364
01:26:49,930 --> 01:26:53,832
I rode my luck. I didn't take anything.
1365
01:26:55,939 --> 01:26:58,476
That's all I took. I took my luck.
1366
01:26:59,061 --> 01:27:00,270
Nothing from anybody.
1367
01:27:01,363 --> 01:27:03,509
They took something important away from me.
1368
01:27:03,509 --> 01:27:04,728
They took my mother away.
1369
01:27:04,729 --> 01:27:07,510
They took away the woman I married.
They took my son away.
1370
01:27:07,510 --> 01:27:09,496
I don't make anybody answer for that.
1371
01:27:09,496 --> 01:27:12,913
I don't make God answer for it. I don't
ask my friends to answer for it.
1372
01:27:13,498 --> 01:27:14,543
Fuck!
1373
01:27:14,543 --> 01:27:18,103
Why do I have to suffer so much?
1374
01:27:30,394 --> 01:27:34,475
That Carlos Kaiser who went
out to the best places…
1375
01:27:37,324 --> 01:27:40,836
that guy was built on strong legs.
1376
01:27:44,191 --> 01:27:46,262
Because Carlos Henrique...
1377
01:27:49,931 --> 01:27:51,487
jumped over a lot of hurdles.
1378
01:27:52,148 --> 01:27:53,212
Lots.
1379
01:27:56,855 --> 01:27:58,799
I want success for those people
who believed…
1380
01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:02,155
in my story.
1381
01:28:05,898 --> 01:28:10,339
And that my story serves as a positive
example, not a negative one.
1382
01:28:11,861 --> 01:28:12,861
For the world.
1383
01:28:14,457 --> 01:28:17,403
But if you intend to talk…
1384
01:28:19,042 --> 01:28:21,704
tell the truth from beginning to end.
1385
01:28:21,704 --> 01:28:25,089
I intended that, so I'm here ready to be judged.
1386
01:28:25,089 --> 01:28:26,089
Which is difficult.
1387
01:28:30,381 --> 01:28:33,262
It's almost 13 years since this story ended.
1388
01:28:36,688 --> 01:28:38,561
And it's only come out now.
1389
01:28:38,561 --> 01:28:42,746
Never. Not one reporter or player or director.
1390
01:28:42,746 --> 01:28:46,370
It goes to show how much these guys respect me…
1391
01:28:46,370 --> 01:28:50,048
that nobody ever put me away.
1392
01:28:50,097 --> 01:28:53,072
Now these stories have come to light.
1393
01:28:58,769 --> 01:29:01,562
I swear on my eyes…
1394
01:29:01,564 --> 01:29:03,006
easily 1000 women.
1395
01:29:09,913 --> 01:29:12,585
You know today is the hardest day to do this.
1396
01:29:19,764 --> 01:29:23,237
Today was the toughest day of the documentary.
1397
01:29:25,110 --> 01:29:26,494
It was the day of talking about my suffering.
1398
01:29:26,494 --> 01:29:27,703
But that's ok.
1399
01:29:31,098 --> 01:29:34,063
If the world has to look into my eyes…
1400
01:29:34,063 --> 01:29:35,741
Here it is.
1401
01:29:48,423 --> 01:29:51,193
(light guitar music)
1402
01:29:58,061 --> 01:30:00,255
[Junior] It was like a fairytale.
1403
01:30:03,845 --> 01:30:08,309
You take a character and let him
live in the football world.
1404
01:30:08,855 --> 01:30:14,458
And what I think is great, is that people
didn't crush the guy's dream.
1405
01:30:19,433 --> 01:30:27,094
[Mauricio] A fantastic character who there are
ano words to describe
1406
01:30:27,094 --> 01:30:33,298
He's part of my whole life story.
1407
01:30:33,689 --> 01:30:36,693
And he has a black brother here.
1408
01:30:43,639 --> 01:30:45,082
Just a moment please.
1409
01:30:48,282 --> 01:30:49,882
I didn't know he was having problems.
1410
01:30:51,014 --> 01:30:53,706
(group vocalizing)
1411
01:31:18,172 --> 01:31:19,600
[Renato] Carlos Kaiser is unique.
1412
01:31:20,420 --> 01:31:21,629
He's unique.
1413
01:31:21,629 --> 01:31:24,156
He always has been and always will be unique.
1414
01:31:24,156 --> 01:31:26,385
Nobody will come close to him.
1415
01:31:26,385 --> 01:31:30,482
He was the greatest footballer
never to have played football.
1416
01:31:30,482 --> 01:31:32,053
In history, without a doubt.
1417
01:31:32,384 --> 01:31:33,384
Unbeatable.
1418
01:31:34,223 --> 01:31:36,761
[Music] Novos Bainos "Besta é tu"
1419
01:33:41,096 --> 01:33:45,605
[Music] Carolina Lins & Os Planatos "I Predict a Riot"
