PROGRAM
True Fútbol Inés Vogelfang / United States / Documentary / 2016 / 10 min. True Fútbol offers a different way of watching the sport of football. The camera contemplates the field, and captures the feeling of being lost in the game while surrounded by the space of the city. The film is a reprieve from the usual trappings of the sport – commerce, corporations and celebrity. Instead, we experience the small unexpected pleasures of amateur football.
