From Triumph to Tragedy is the glorious, uplifting but ultimately
tragic story of Chapecoense, the small-town Brazilian football club
that made worldwide news following their meteoric rise from
non-league to continental sensation. Yet the headlines that will be
remembered centre on the air disaster en route to what should have
been their greatest ever match. Less than ten years after the local
mayor had intervened to save the club from liquidation, Associacao
Chapecoense de Futebol had become champions of the Santa Catarina
State Championship. At the summit of the Brazilian national league
structure, they also qualified sensationally for the final of the
Copa Sul Americana. The team of rejects and journeymen became
heroes not just in their own city, but also to the whole nation.
But the final was never to take place, as tragedy struck to render
all those triumphant nights insignificant. Could the club now stage
one more incredible recovery to allow Era Chape to continue, rather
than to accept their fate as the tragic team beloved in fans'
memories?
