Details

Directed By: Sachin Balasaheb Suryawanshi

This documentary sheds light on the feisty football journey of a small city, Kolhapur. This is a story of how a game played barefoot in the pockets of Kolhapur a century ago now draws more than 25,000 spectators for its local games. The passion for football here once extended beyond the ground, and guarded the unity among the people of this city. Be it playing with the Polish refugees after World War 2 or challenging the British troops for a game in 1936, Kolhapur's people have always had a hunger for football. This is an ode to the unsung history of Kolhapur's football, with the hope that if revered at a national level, it will do wonders for the social harmony and integration of the country as it once did for the city.
