Twenty-five years ago, Vidar Gylfason from the tiny fishing village of Hellissandur (population: 369) in Iceland created a real-life field of dreams for his town by constructing a national FA Cup regulation football pitch, but no team ever set foot on it. Now, Vidar’s spirited son Kari is determined to bring football glory to Hellissandur and fulfil his father’s original dream.

A charming, award-winning documentary.

Q&A with Smari Gunn, chaired by Dave Evans.
