Why watch this film?
The Champion is a Spanish sports drama that actually takes the plot off the field. Starring rapper Swit Eme, it follows the story of a young and prodigious football player from Atlético Madrid, who is breaking all records and leading his team to glory. However, he is problematic and violent, leading to his suspension. The team hires a reclusive psychology professor (Dani Rovira) to help him. As they get to know each other, he will try to help him improve and grow as a person, in an environment that only wants to benefit from his football talent. It is a story about dignity and overcoming that presents interesting ideas, such as the different types of intelligence or "genius" that exist. It loses its way a bit towards the end but can appeal to fans of perseverance stories in sports.
