Football Stories is a film that focuses on three stories of this sport in different areas of life. The first story, realizes an outstanding footballer street with a very promising future. Unfortunately, it falls into the hands of the leaders by the attraction of dirty money. So, for sale and sell the team to lose, which does not happen and finally ends up being punished by the mob leaders.
The second story, about a gang of kids in the Atacama desert, who while they were outside the stadium in Calama receive a soccer ball that falls as "from above". It's a very touching story that shows human poverty and the quest for football that exists in childhood.
The third shows the arrival of a young of Santiago on the island of Chiloe, the story is framed in the World cup Spain 1982 on the day that Chile played against Germany. This young, soccer-loving age awakens instincts deserve two spinster sisters in the solitude of the island.

This young, soccer-loving age and awakens instincts deserve two spinster sisters in the solitude of the fjords chilotes. These sisters invite you to watch the game with them, as do a curanto (typical food of Chiloé).
Unfortunately the weather conditions are not good and the television antenna began to fail. Finally, one of the sisters taught him which is really the passion of the crowds (scene where the woman says grabbing the breasts).
This film marks a before and after in sensitizing people in a special way with this sport so exciting. Personally, I like a lot, because embodied in images and in "football stories" three scopes that have the game in life itself. Rescue as a very complete football articulates the practices of people and is the independent variable to decide sometimes.
Before the “El Chacotero”, “Sex with Love” or “Subterra”, was “Historias de Fútbol” to lead the way for the new national cinema. Simple stories, but deeply human, lovable, affectionate. A trilogy of short films that begin to show Chile all day from the neighborhood to the “Pichanga” unhealthy passion to reach the World Cup. The story of the delivery guys goats perhaps a postcard of how many ordinary lives that will be reflected with nostalgia. This is the importance of Andrés Wood, the director of this film.
