Den unge Zlatan

In 2002 the best football film ever Blådårar 2 – Vägen Tillbaka had its world premiere at the Göteborg Film Festival - an unforgettable film experience on Pustervik's rock-hard bleachers. It was about Malmö FF's return to the Premier Division of the Swedish Football League and the star was the teenage Zlatan. Now in Becoming Zlatan Sweden's documentary heavyweights, Magnus and Fredrik Gertten, have dug through their archives to tell a moving story about an irresistibly charismatic, cheeky young Zlatan but moreso about the struggle against the constant pressure endured on the way to becoming a star. The film is a boost to all those struggling to realize their dreams and a reminder that the margins are often tiny between success and failure. (Göteborg Film Festival)
