In the Hands of the Gods

 

UK 2007, 102 minutes
Dir. Benjamin Turner, Gabe Turner
Genres: Documentary / Road Movie

Topics: Sport.

 

Aroview: Uplifting documentary following five soccer fanatics who take up street busking in order to travel to Buenos Aires and meet their hero Diego Maradona.

Impressive ball-skills aside, this character study highlights a positive, passionate side to a much maligned football culture. The predictability of the ‘against-all-odds’ underdog story may dissuade some, but our protagonists are engaging enough to keep you riveted despite the occasional dose of treacle. Football lovers will find the ride particularly affecting.
