The four films were directed by Wilkins & Maguire – BAFTA nominated documentary-makers at production company Stink and co-written with Andy Clough and Richard McGrann. They were filmed by Oscar nominated James Laxton and coloured by Alex Bickel, both of Moonlight fame.

In the second film, Nigerian Goodluck tells how his love of football helped to find love, friendship and happiness, despite losing his leg. In a third, Gaelle from Cameroon talks of how she overcame gender role convention to find international success in women’s football.

The stories are all football-related to tie in with Guinness’s sponsorship of sub-Saharan Africa TV network DSTV’s coverage of English Premier League football.
