For the opening match of the FIFA World Cup, the journalist visits Edi Silva, a Brazilian chef living in Interlaken. She watches the match on TV with his family, discusses Brazilian football culture with Edi, and dances a few steps of the samba every time a goal is scored. With this portrait, the journalist succeeded in creating a local connection to the FIFA World Cup in Brazil.
