Buying the Game - When Brooklyn Meets Capoeira

When you're far away from home, the best alternative you have is to let your roots grow in search of meaningful purposes. On a Sunday afternoon in New York, applauses and drum beats echos through the streets of Brooklyn. In the background, there is a circle of cheerful people. It's Capoeira. The music, the singing, the fighting like dancing (or dancing like fighting) brings together enthusiasts from different nationalities. It's a call for all people to unite their own community through art. While he speaks about his journey with the afro-brazilian martial art, the Capoeira Master "Pião" (Alisson Silveira) celebrates the diversity of Brazilian ancestral culture in America and strengthens it's bonds in the present through his unique way of connecting stories and people. "Buying the Game" is an invitation to take risks and discover a new way of community life.
