INTRUSION
A documentary by Arne Birkenstock and Daniel Gordon | 90 min | 2023 | D, USA
The film tells stories of betrayal, murder, escape and manipulation from two decades of GDR soccer and shows that the game of soccer is about more than men chasing a ball. A Cold War thriller on and around the soccer field, where the soccer anthem "You'll never walk alone" takes on a whole new meaning.
