Diego Maradona

Why do exceptional people matter so much to us? Why do we get so emotionally attached to a team?

Asif Kapadia, director of Amy and Senna, captures all the euphoria and catastrophe in a gripping documentary about the ‘hand of God’ megastar.

It’s a saga with it all: women, drugs, fame and despair.

...närgånget och fascinerande om det argentinska bollsnillet.

I spejlingen mellem Napoli og Maradona løfter Kapadias film sig over den gængse sportsdokumentar, for sjældent har en sportsudøver været så forbundet med ikke blot en klub, men en hel by.

An atmospheric soundtrack and brilliant editing of the copious amounts of archive footage weave a compelling story that gets to he heart of why Maradona's career -- and indeed his life -- went off the rails.
