Inside the Pig's Nest

"Inside The Pig's Nest" explores the formation of Porcos Toronto, a Palmeiras supporters group that continues to strengthen the collective unity of football fans in the city’s ever-growing Brazilian community.

Bridging old interviews with newer recordings, Ana Saplala highlights how football creates countless opportunities for diasporic communities, and how fandom support can broaden one’s sense of belonging.
