Directed by Jacques Tati, Sophie Tatischeff
Produced by Specta Films, Son Pour Son
A Tati-directed documentary capturing a 1978 UEFA Cup football match with the director's characteristic observational eye and playful sensibility applied to live sports.
"Forza Bastia" is a 26-minute film documenting a UEFA Cup match between PSV Eindhoven and French club SC Bastia at the Furiani Stadium in 1978. Jacques Tati directed the piece at the request of friend Gilberto Trigano – the President of the Bastia club at that time. It was subsequently shelved and kept in storage until Tati's daughter Sophie Tatischeff eventually assembled the footage for release in 2002.
