Directed by Duncan McMath
Produced by Zoomsport International, Universal Pictures
An inspiring documentary celebrating a legendary football team's dominance through firsthand player accounts, blending athletic excellence with human triumph and rivalry.
Take the Ball, Pass the Ball is the definitive story of the greatest football team ever assembled. For four explosive years, Pep Guardiola's Barça produced the greatest football in history, seducing fans around the world. In this exclusive, first-hand account of events between 2008 and 2012, the players themselves reveal the tension of the bitter Guardiola-Mourinho rivalry, the emotion of Abidal's fight back from cancer to lift the European Cup and how Messi, the best footballer the world's ever seen, was almost rejected by Barça as a 13-year-old.
