Alternate abstract:

The format of documentaries about sports celebrities as protagonists has become consolidated on VOD platforms. In Spain, the highest production of such documentaries can be observed, with soccer being the most prominent sport featured. The miniseries Alexia, Labor Omnia Vincit (Amazon Prime Video, 2022) profiles the F.C. Barcelona player Alexia Putellas as a heroine of women's soccer. It details her achievements, including winning the Ballon d'Or in 2021 and 2022, the FIFA The Best award, the Globe Soccer Awards, and Best Player of the Year by UEFA in two consecutive editions. From a gender perspective, this article analyses the documentary on the figure of Putellas from the perspective of soccer stardom as a contemporary mythology. It concludes that her transnational dimension is symptomatic of globalised culture.
