This observing documentary reverses the perspective of a football match: it is not about the game, but about the spectators. How do supporters, from young to old, experience the classic ball game?
Fanatical supporters, fathers, mothers, children, adolescents and elderly people: in this graduation film, everyone experiences a football match in his or her unique way. This observing documentary about group dynamics does not point the camera at the game itself, but at the stands, where the audience watches the ball game. In these scenes, shot in black and white, the first half, the interval and the second half actually symbolise life itself. Who are these spectators? What do they experience during the game and perhaps also during their own lives?
