Tigers at Glasgow Film Theatre
1 – 7 July, 2022
Based on the true story of 16-year-old Swedish soccer sensation Martin Bengtsson, Tigers holds up a mirror to the ruthless world of professional football. A relentlessly focused Martin (a brilliant Erik Enge) has pushed his teenage body and mind to the limits in pursuit of his dream. When he is signed by Inter Milan the dream comes true, but the real pressure begins as this vulnerable, lonely boy has to prove himself in a highly competitive environment where not everyone wants him to succeed.
A raw, bruising account of the beautiful game and the brutal price of excellence.
GFT 12 Rose Street, G3 6RB
