Description

Roller coasters and bagpipes, fishing and dancing, tequila and steak, art and castles, darts, golf and tennis feature in this enrapturing look at how players and supporters enjoyed themselves off the pitch at Sweden 1958. The film also focuses on some unforgettable on-the-field stories, such as Just Fontaine’s record 13-goal campaign and the explosion on to the global scene of two of the greatest performers of all time: Garrincha and Pele. At 17, the latter set records aplenty as Brazil finally got their hands on the FIFA World Cup trophy.
