"Playcenter DOC" is a documentary film made independently in 2012 by employees of the Rides department ("Raides": the department responsible for operating rides) of the Playcenter amusement park, which was located in the western part of São Paulo, Barra Funda, from July 27, 1973 to July 29, 2012. The film tells the history of the park with a greater focus on the Rides department. In it, you can see employee meetings before the park began operating, moments of relaxation, lunch, among many other remarkable things that only employees had access to. And even never-before-seen footage of the dismantling of Boomerang; the first major attraction to leave the park.
