Synopsis
Day-to-day portrait of Juan Carlos Unzué for two and a half years, since in June 2020 the former Barça goalkeeper and coach made his diagnosis public. Unzué proposed two things: on the one hand, to make the disease, ALS, visible, and on the other, to organize a great event to raise as much money as possible to dedicate it to research.
'Unzué. El último equipo de Juancar' shows us all the meetings and conversations that took place with leaders of FC Barcelona and Manchester City with the aim of organizing a charity football match to raise funds for ALS research. The match was played on August 24 at the Camp Nou (Barcelona) and more than 91,000 people attended as an audience. The incredible number of 4.3 million euros was raised.
Besides sharing with the viewer the necessary negotiations to organize the historic match, in the documentary Juan Carlos Unzué opens the doors of his house to show the evolution that the illness causes in his body, thus making it visible.
'Unzué. El último equipo de Juancar' is a project that started in the sports department of Televisión de Catalunya with the aim of giving a voice to Juan Carlos and to those people and families affected by the disease.
'Unzué. El último equipo de Juancar' is directed by Xavier Torres, Santi Padró and Jesús Muñoz.
