A seven-year-old soccer prodigy is recruited to play for Sweden's national soccer team in the 1974 World Cup qualifiers and becomes an overnight sensation. But his playing interferes with his school work, and he can’t read newspaper headlines about himself or write his name to sign autographs. An adorable and surreal comedy by trailblazing Swedish filmmaker Bo Widerberg.
“A delightful rarity, a film presumably intended for children which can be enjoyed equally by their parents.” – London Film Festival
