- Synopsis
- A penetrating look into the wild East of European football, this sports documentary series follows the agonizing effort of a group of veteran football players to revive the team that made them famous: OFI FC. From the absolute decline of 2015 and the collective trauma of a city losing its football symbol, to the search for an investor in America and the resulting New Age that followed, the production was given unprecedented access behind the scenes and inside the locker rooms of a Greek A’ League Football Club.
