With the World Cup happening in suspect circumstances in 2022 I wanted to write a subversive film. An anti-anthem for the tournament if you like. Digging into the unique pressures facing today's footballers we find characters caught in a world of negative noise. Perhaps because of their race, gender or identity. The film questions how this affects their mental health in the intense spotlight of social media through a killer track drop by Slowthai. Massive shout to Mary Philip and Peckham FC - our true stars.
Love, respect and thanks to Hector Dockrill and Pulse Films for pulling this mad one off and keep everything icy cold. As it should be.
