Pressure, you know who has it?
00:03
The man who goes to work at 4 in the morning
00:07
and can't take 100 pesos home.
00:11
He has pressure.
00:14
Because he has to feed his children.
00:17
I don't have pressure.
00:19
I have the pot full, thank God.
00:30
Diego Maradona is non-stop drama.
00:38
He likes chaos.
00:40
Diego likes trouble.
00:42
And if everything is calm and peaceful,
00:44
he will create trouble.
00:46
Diego came from a really bad, really tough childhood.
01:00
And he came from like a poverty that you could not imagine.
01:03
When he was really young, he lived in a very, very poor village.
01:06
And it's a time when people didn't have toilets in their homes.
01:09
You had to go outside to go to the toilet.
01:12
And when he was a kid, he fell in a cesspit.
01:16
A cesspit is like an outside toilet.
01:18
And he nearly drowned.
01:43
I don't see myself as an artist.
01:45
I see myself as a footballer.
01:47
A footballer who plays a little better than the others.
01:58
The price is decided by the bosses.
02:00
I don't know if I'm well paid or not.
02:02
But if you ask Maradona,
02:04
he will tell you that he is worth much more than 14 billion lire.
02:07
He took a team that had never won anything
02:10
and he won the toughest league championship in the world at the time.
02:36
So Diego Maradona is the best footballer in the world.
02:39
He is the best footballer of all time.
02:41
No matter what you've heard or seen,
02:43
he's the best football player of all time.
02:45
He had the most dramatic life.
02:47
He won the World Cup.
02:49
Pretty much, he was the best player of a bad team.
02:51
He won it on his own.
03:09
The first time, when I took cocaine,
03:11
I was suspended.
03:13
It's very good.
03:15
I made a mistake.
03:17
I didn't say the opposite.
03:19
But the second time,
03:21
I think it's deeply unfair.
03:23
Totally unfair.
03:25
Because the ephedrine,
03:27
it does nothing.
03:39
The best footballer of all time
03:41
won the World Cup
03:43
with a team that had never won anything.
03:45
Diego Maradona is the best footballer of all time.
03:47
He won it on his own.
03:49
Totally unfair.
03:51
The first time,
03:53
I think it's deeply unfair.
03:55
Totally unfair.
03:57
The second time,
03:59
I think it's deeply unfair.
04:01
The third time,
04:03
I think it's deeply unfair.
04:05
The fourth time,
04:07
I think it's deeply unfair.
04:09
I'm not a god.
04:11
I'm just a simple player.
04:13
I'm just a simple player.
04:23
You have to realize
04:25
that you can make mistakes.
04:27
You can make mistakes.
04:29
You can make a lot of mistakes.
04:31
You can make a lot of mistakes.
04:33
You can make a heart
04:35
with a little hole.
04:37
You can make a heart with a little hole.
04:39
I think that little hole
04:41
is going to be tremendous
04:43
through time.
04:45
I think
04:47
my heart
04:49
is going to be
04:51
in sync.
04:53
My heart,
04:55
my mind,
04:57
my soul.

Long live the one who hasn't earned it.
05:46
This film that Mir makes
05:50
has all the ingredients
05:53
to know who Maradona is, who Diego is.
06:01
The film is dedicated to all the people who made it possible.
06:06
Talking about Maradona is like talking about Pope Pius, I don't know.
06:21
How do I take care of myself?
06:23
I make love.
06:27
I have the same desire.
06:29
I always have the same desire.
06:31
The people who hired me trust me to apply my principles.
06:34
I've had a lot of setbacks in my life.
07:02
Today I'm 57 years old.
07:05
I assume this responsibility
07:10
as someone who has a son in his arms.
07:32
Diego's life is a series of cycles of death and resurrection.
07:36
He dies, he's the failure, everyone thinks it's all over,
07:39
and then he comes back, he's great, he's going to win again, he's brilliant.
07:42
And then it goes wrong and he dies again.
07:44
So his whole story is one cycle from very young.
07:48
Everyone thinks he's finished and then he will come back.
07:51
I just want to be Maradona.
