SATELLITES is a documentary about the passion for soccer told through the points-of-view of characters who were following somehow the final match of the Brazilian Soccer Cup. The film moves the focus from the game to the field's margins, to the fans, to outside the stadium. The movie intends to capture the tension, atmosphere and charm of a final match. SATELLITES translates, based on images captured during that game, the sensation of being at the stadium watching the game with no images of the game itself.

Each citizen of Jotuomba plays an integral role in village life. Madalena is responsible for baking bread; each morning she stacks her rolls as Antonio prepares the coffee. The two share a morning ritual of arguments and insults, followed by an amicable cup of coffee on the bench outside Antonio's shop. At midday the church bells ring, summoning the villagers to mass. In the early evening, they all share a meal together. And so life proceeds in Jotuomba, the days languidly drifting into one another; the only variations seem to be in the weather. But, one day Rita arrives looking for a place to stay.
