The Great Match

Parallel stories from remote regions of the planet (Mongolia, Niger and the Amazon) follow the trials and tribulations of far-flung soccer enthusiasts determined to watch the 2002 World Cup final. A visually breathtaking, gently comic homage to the indigenous communities that are its subject.
