Loving Maradona

You think that football (please don’t upset me by calling it soccer) is just a game? Here is a film to show you just how wrong you are. Diego Maradona exploded on to the football scene from the slums of Villa Fiorito and the world has never been the same. This effervescent Argentinian exploration of The Great One’s life tells you everything you want to know about Diego as footballer, as extramegasuperstar (excuse me, but it is necessary to make up new words when contemplating Maradona’s stature), as social conscience of Latin America, as rocker, as victim of the establishment who came to earth to suffer for our sins, and even as GOD—there I’ve said it. From Maradona himself, to his family, his friends and his tattooist, this film will bring you to the inescapable conclusion that there is no alternative other than loving Maradona. There is only one word for this film: Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!
