Africa Goal: The Documentary
Africa Goal will bring football to places it’s never been before. It will document what only sport can do, it will bring diverse culturestogether instantly, if only briefly, and in doing so help alleviate one of the biggest threats to life in the developing world.
This observational documentary will follow the progress of an adventurous group of young people throughout the World Cup as they travel from
Kenya to South Africa. By projecting live matches on a giant screen in remote villages, playing football with the locals and holding AIDS
awareness workshops, the team hopes to raise money, educate and build friendships.
The crew will follow the team closely on the 10,000km journey, capturing the pre match excitement, post match exhilaration, fraying tempers,
the tears of exhaustion and the laughter as they take the world cup to places it has never been before. The team will be constantly on the move
taking the world cup matches to as many people as they can.
As South Africa prepares itself for the World Cup, the team will also be preparing themselves for this daunting and challenging adventure.
Africa Goal will endeavor to show the viewers a small but fascinating snippet of events taking place in this vast football-loving continent.
The team aims to take the joy of the world cup to the remotest parts of Southern Africa sharing the beautiful game.
