In July 1984, Diego Maradona arrived in Naples for a world-record fee to rescue ailing football giant SSC Napoli. Blessed on the field but cursed off it, the charismatic Argentine quickly led Naples to their first-ever title.


This fast paced and frantic documentary is constructed from over 500 hours of never-before-seen footage from Maradona’s personal archive, and is a gripping watch for any sports fan.  


Useful for Senior Cycle PE discussions on psychological preparation, drugs and media in sport.
