Shrovetide: The Birth of Football

Story

The passion that the locals have for the game is truly remarkable; to many 'scoring a Shrovetide ball changes their life'. This documentary tells the story of a town consumed by the game and in particular the exceptional events of 2019, where the ball was stolen away in the darkness by a Geography teacher and his brother. This is British sub-culture at its most brilliantly bizarre
