Diego Maradona
The third film from the Academy Award and BAFTA-winning director behind SENNA and AMY, Asif Kapadia and producer Paul Martin constructed Diego Maradona's documentary from over 500 hours of never-before-seen footage from his personal archive with the full support by the man, Maradona himself. The movie is set to release to the Indian cinemas on October 11, 2019, by PVR Pictures.
Diego Maradona was considered the best player in the world from the moment he burst onto the scene in his native Argentina. And yet success proved elusive. He failed at Barcelona. He was considered a problem player, too interested in partying. Diego Maradona was blessed on the field and treated like a God off it; the charismatic Argentine loved a fight against the odds and led Naples to their first-ever League title. It was the stuff of dreams.
