“The Sun Inside” … football

In 2012 was released in theaters, “The sun inside” a movie by Paolo Bianchini from a few known, a good movie, one of those films that do not go to see because bombarded by advertising, but you go to see because someone told you about so well you can not do without it, one of those movies not fueled by large retailers, who lives in the mouth. Especially  “the sun inside” is a must-see film for those who want a different kind of football history, a story of baby footballers too often forgotten. The film between the various issues addressed also speaks of trafficking of young African footballers.
The director Paolo Bianchini thus speaks in an interview (Azzolini for fantagazzetta.com): “for Eto’o, there are twenty thousand African children taken from villages and brought to Europe, the alleged international prosecutors charged a small fee for families, and bring with them the boys, thirteen, not more. If you auditioned these guys are bad, most of them do not know anything. They are simply abandoned, perhaps to a gas pump, as it happens to the protagonist of the film. ”

It ‘a plague which mainly France, but from which Italy is absolutely free, Bianchini says, “because it is true that the law is clear (before the age of an African boy can be transferred in a sports club of the European only accompanied by his family, at the expense of society, ed.), but FIFA can not monitor all the individual displacements, which are thousands. Also because often these auditions take place for smaller companies, or amateur. If they go bad, these so-called agents, which are actually smugglers of football, you do not create problems to leave these guys in the middle of a road. ”
The sun inside is a story about football, friendship and solidarity. The story of Thabo, an immigrant originally from a small African village and Rocco, fourteen of Bari. Their story intersects and is the setting for a true story, that of two Guinean boys, Yaguine and Fodè, they write a letter addressed to “large “in the European Parliament. The letter speaks of the troubled African continent, children’s rights are denied, the desire for redemption and civil progress expressed by the younger generation. It is 1999, the two go to the airport and are caught by hidden compartment in the undercarriage of a plane: destination, Brussels, with the intention to deliver their letter directly into the hands of the representatives of Europe. When the plane lands in Brussels, a technician discovers embraced the bodies frozen to death Yaguine and Fodè, next to the letter addressed “To their Excellencies.”
It is a film that anyone who is in football should watch, a movie that makes you think, that does enjoy another side of football and especially a film that should be seen by many “pseudo-attorneys” that more and more often and more quickly turn around to small players.
