Kicking and Screening

Tonight London will host it's first ever International Football Film Festival. Kicking and Screening, an annual New York based event that brings together football and film enthusiasts to celebrate the beautiful game on the big screen is setting up a series of week long events which hope to "engage, connect, and inspire" football fanatics and non football lovers by showing them a side of football that, in the words of Tom Watt one of the co-producers of the event, "a Sky or BBC camera might not normally take them".

The events first screening is the excellent documentary 'Once In A Lifetime' - The rise and fall of the legendary New York Cosmos, the team that brought Pele to America, set against the backdrop of New York City in the 1970s.
