2009: J4K on TV in Brazil for the 2nd time

Sim Meu Amigaos! Basileiros love Just For Kicks, … and we love them too! Following a first series of wildly successful air dates with our friends at GloboSat, they asked to renew the licensing of J4K for yet another term. The film will be shown on their encrypted channel, the Multishow (http://multishow.globo.com/).

Who said films and especially documentaries have a short life span? Well that rule does not apply to our baby. Five years and kickin’! Like Exec Producer Thierry Daher says: “Kicks is like a good wine, it matures and its relevance increases with age. By producing a film that was labeled upon its release as an instant classic, I believe we documented a piece of history; one that everyone can relay to.”

And that is especially true in a country where the shoe of choice is “the other rubber sole” … the Havaiana flip flop; and where sneakers are still considered a luxury (think that a pair of Nike cost north of $200 on average, in a country where the minimum monthly salary is $180 – yo Phil Knight, what the hell you’re doing?).
