The Men Who Sold The World Cup

2021 · 1 season

A measured, sobering documentary that methodically peels back the layers of backroom dealings, watching powerful men trade principles for profit.

Overview
The corruption, backroom deals and greed behind awarding the World Cup comes to a head when the 2022 tournament is awarded to Qatar, a desert nation with baking summer temperatures, no world-class stadiums, little interest in soccer - and lots of money.
How it feels
Cynical, tense and dark. Measured and needs your attention.
