Description
To announce the launch of Rexona's Breaking Limits Project in the Jardim Peri neighborhood, the various Gabriel Jesus graffiti murals have been altered with his face being replaced by those of young kids from the Peri community as a way of inspiring them to challenge their limits just like Gabriel. The player and the children star in the brand film about the project, to the sound of the “A vida é desafio” (Life is a challenge) song by Racionais MC’s — where the phrase: "I’ve always been a dreamer, that's what’s kept me going. As a kid, my dream was to be a soccer player, just watch me", comes from, and which the athlete has tattooed on his chest. The band is one of the biggest rap groups in Brazil, known for songs that address themes such as racism, social inequality and life on the outskirts of São Paulo. Link
Born and raised in the Jardim Peri community in the North of Sao Paulo, Gabriel Jesus’ life has been totally transformed thanks to the opportunities he's had through sports. Inspired by the player's trajectory, Rexona, a brand that believes that physical movement has the power to transform lives, decided to support other youngsters from the community, so they too can reach their full potential. In partnership with the Jardim Peri Institute and Love.Fútbol, the Rexona Breaking Limits project will promote structural improvements and community empowerment projects dedicated to youth development through movement.
"We are all well aware of the barriers that exist for those on the outskirts of the city and know how important it is to help these kids believe that it is possible to have a better life and get ahead. In these communities, sport has always been about so much more than leisure, it is a space for the formation of a collective spirit that governs the broken", comments Edi Rock from Racionais MC’s.
Produced by the Energy BBDO agency, the film, Peri Beyond the Limits sensitively shows the player’s trajectory to inspire and encourage kids in the community.
