Footy Legends has a couple of sub plots running through it, but it’s main focus is all about never giving up, no matter how insurmountable the odds may seem.

It’s a film about seven guys from the worst suburb, in the worst city, in the worst country in the world. They’re a bunch of no-hopers.

Together however, on a field with a pigskin ball, they become something else.

Dysfunctional and downtrodden, with no body on their side these unlikely heroes decide to chase their dreams, and along they way, they manage to bring a community to life, and infuse everyone around them with the all to precious commodity of hope.

Food for thought:
Do you have a dream worth fighting for?

Rent or buy?
As uplifting as it is, Footy Legends is unlikely to warrant a second look, rent it.
