Football and Dreams (1978)

To reveal this world of Football - sports phenomenon but, also social - the film chooses two complementary routes. The first route goes through the life of the players of the National Team of Tunisia (year 1977-1978) and its coach Abdelmajid Chetali. We see them, thus, evolve in their daily existence at home and in the field. The second itinerary tells the story of two teenagers, Khaled and Hichem, who, from popular neighborhoods, follow, in fantasy, the existence of these players: their idols. These two parallel tracks lead us, in this year 1977-78, to the grandiose spectacle of the match Tunisia / Egypt. And from there, we follow the Argentine epic of the Tunisian national team: its first participation in a world cup, become "legend".
