When people talked about Diego Maradona in the 80s, the only appropriate comparison was God himself. Asif Kapadia (SENNA, AMY) tells the story of Maradona's rise and fall chronologically, with his Italian years as the linchpin. In 1984 he transferred to SSC Napoli, where everyone was trying to get close to him – including the Camorra, who supplied him with coke and women. Doping tests were generously suspended for him. But Kapadia doesn't use these facts as the basis for speculations. A worthy conclusion of his trilogy about genius and fame.
