Documentary film. Robin’s Hood

A soccer team full of underdogs. The kind-hearted, big-mouthed, ex-convict Robin is president of his own amateur soccer club in Austria, which lurks around, with varying degrees of success, in the lower leagues.

Director Jasmin Baumgartner accompanied him for over seven years – and observed how Robin, trying to keep his “dirty rotten bunch” of multi-cultural characters together, is faced with abysmal racism on the sidelines, excessive parties, unpleasant coach changes, thefts in the locker room, and cops arresting his players over a few joints.
