The script, penned by the director himself, is based on Martin Bengtsson’s 2007 autobiographical novel In the Shadow of San Siro. The story revolves around Bengtsson’s experience as a 17-year-old football wonderkid, freshly recruited by Inter Milan, whose dream turned into a nightmare when he started suffering from depression and tried to commit suicide.

Speaking about the plot to Nordisk Film & TV Fond, veteran producer Piodor Gustafsson explained: “The film is really about a young man – Martin – who discovers things about himself and is transformed. Football is just an arena to tell this coming-of-age story. But the film does raise the problem of mental illness within the high-pressure, money-driven world of professional football, which affects about 30% of the top players in the world.”

The international cast includes actors Erik Lönngren (the TV series The Bridge, The Disciple [+leggi anche:
