About Anything for Soccer
In a small provincial town everything goes well, apart from sports activities. The local soccer team is on the verge of relegation. But the ones responsible with the team are ready to do "everything for soccer", even match-fixing.
Directed by Andrei Blaier, Anything for Soccer leans on a strong ensemble — Petre Gheorghiu, Aurel Giurumia, Paul Lavric — 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 screen titles of 1978.
