A co-production with STATE OF GRACE, directed by Guy King.

In war-torn 1980s Derry, four men turn to football to save their city, in this heartfelt doc about the power of community.

In the middle of the Troubles Derry lost its football team for 13 years. Until the so-called Gang of Four did the impossible, gaining entry to another country’s league. In so doing, they transformed how the world saw Derry – and how the city saw itself.

Daily Telegraph Pick of the Day: ‘This captivating documentary recalls how Derry City FC rose, phoenixlike, to heal a community blighted by sectarian violence.’

The Guardian: ‘Emotional..Rarely has football’s ability to galvanise been so rousingly demonstrated’.

Sunday Times, Critic’s Choice: ‘A buoyant piece of social history’

Different League screened on BBC2 and BBC NI in April 2021 to great reviews and a rapturous response from football fans and football cynics alike. The doc feature will follow later in the year.
