Fireworks explode while dancers perform at the beginning of the opening ceremony of 31st Summer Olympic Games at the Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on Friday, August 5, 2016. City of God director Fernando Ferreira Meirelles utilised a giant digital floor and clever lighting to impressive effect to create a stadium spectacle for a fraction of the cost of previous opening ceremonies, following cuts to the budget.
