On the first morning, the crew spent two hours simply observing. No cameras. No microphones. Just watching. Learning the rhythms of the building. Where people gathered. Where the conversations happened. Where the light was best.
Elena sat in the canteen with a cup of coffee and watched the players eat breakfast, studying the social geography: who sat with whom, which groups were loud, which individuals were quiet, where the energy concentrated and where it diffused. She was mapping the documentary before she shot a single frame.
By the afternoon, the cameras were rolling. Tomás set up in the corridor near the analysis suite, where the foot traffic was constant, the conversations organic, and the photographs on the wall provided a visual narrative that he could use as B-roll.
