Wrestling covered in olive oil or bungee jumping off a 100-foot wooden tower with only a vine to break your fall—seem crazy? These are some sports played around the world that will never be seen at the Olympic Games. From Japan to Ireland and the remote archipelago of Vanuatu, we meet cowboys, martial artists, athletes, and rowers.

This documentary in Portuguese is a cinematic, gripping journey exploring traditional and unusual sports that have been passed down through generations in the most remote places on Earth.
