Among the participants of a football match we know the less about the referees. They don't really give interviews, you don't know much about their private life and I'm sure you don't even know the names of the two linesmen at the end of the match. Here is the chance to get some insight! (See the announcement at the bottom!)
'Les Arbitres' or 'Kill the Referee' is a documentary about the 'men in black'. Their private life, the communication during the match, their preparation is all revealed in this film and even much more. The stars are Howard Webb, Massimo Busacca, Roberto Rosetti, Manuel Mejuto González and Peter Fjördfeldt and the scene is the EURO 2008.
I think there is not an even simmilar movie to this, so it's a must see for every football fan.
The video is not a trailer, it's the first part of the full movie but the problem is, that it has Italian subtitles... (If you speak French or Polish, you can find a subtitled version on YouTube) About the 60% of the film is in English, so it's quite easy to understand.
