The Football Monologues

  • slideshow_large

Synopsis

THE FOOTBALL MONOLOGUES is an absorbing, funny and poignant look at life across the playing fields and terraces. Writer, producer and director Greg Cruttwell's film tells the stories of seven different people living in and around the beautiful game. Amongst our subjects are Kimberly (Emma Amos), a straight-talking, no-nonsense businesswoman; experienced referee Colin (Mark Hadfield), a man in his late 50's and a stickler for the rules and Mark (Samuel Anderson), a professional player who should be in his prime but is feeling the pressure. Each of our subjects talks intimately to the camera, unveiling their innermost hopes and fears and one by one they touch on themes central to us all: the fragility of our mental selves, the failings of our bodies, the complexities of our relationships and ambitions and our need to connect.
