American Football

With unprecedented access to the team, we go on a journey of redemption. Set against the backdrop of the rise of soccer in America, the film captures the beauty of the game as never before. But the heart of the movie is the examination of the people who come from all over the world to pursue a goal together. Each brings his own talents,but also his own indelible childhood experiences and family dynamics, which allows us to explore our own.

Directed by Scott levy, American Football leans on a strong ensemble — Sigi Schmid — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2013.
