This film has everything from a film noir: atmosphere, characters relationships, photography, everything, except gangsters and guns. Yes, this could have been a movie about drug traffic or a sport feature about boxing and rotten managers or corrupted fights organizers. But it remains a good film about football - soccer - and its untold underneath matters. Very good directing and acting, for a movie which does not speak of glory and.glitter, pretty gals and easy money, nor success or happy endings in the sunset. It's a shame that no one seems to have seen it yet.
Ridiculously underrated Dutch film on football/soccer, gambling, rigged games, and gangsters. Well done and engaging. Well made sports scenes may also be highlighted.
