Overview
- Valencia CF filed a civil suit in a Valencia court against Netflix and producer Conspiraçao Filmes alleging an intrusion on the club’s right to honor.
- The complaint centers on a TikTok clip in the documentary that shows the word “mono” in subtitles despite the stadium’s predominant chant being “tonto,” according to the club.
- The club seeks financial compensation, corrections to the contested subtitles, and the inclusion of the judge’s eventual ruling within the film.
- Valencia says Netflix declined earlier written requests to edit the documentary, replying that nothing would be changed.
- Context from the 2023 match: three supporters were identified and later convicted for racially aggravated offenses, receiving eight-month prison terms and stadium bans.
