This is an entertainment genre exploding onto our screens like no other. Netflix kicked it all off with their Sunderland Til I Die series, now Disney and FX have just launched Welcome to Wrexham made by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McEllheney. Amazon Prime went all in on All or Nothing; a glossy, access all areas take on life inside Man City and Arsenal. Finding Jack Charlton redefined the football documentary with its poignant and sensitive treatment of Alzheimer’s. BBC had a hit with Fever Pitch which told tales of the rise of the Premier League and FIFA launched their FIFA+ platform with a promise of high quality long form storytelling. Now all the major broadcasters want a piece of the action. Factual football films are in fashion. Join key decision makers, industry experts and lead creatives from the sports doc industry who’ll be talk about the whole process – from pitch to production, via fund raising, storytelling, access, ethics, rights and distribution.
