Ilusión Nacional

Ilusión Nacional (2014) is a documentary film directed by Olallo Rubio rated 7.8/10.

A sport like football is primarily a passionate celebration, but one that is so massive (economically, politically and socially) that it, of course, also brings many problems. Olallo Rubio's third documentary (and fourth film in total), Ilusión Nacional, is a take on how the world's most popular sport relates to Mexican society and politics.
