Film Freak 2011 - Montevideo: Taste of a Dream

THE STORY: “Montevideo, Taste of A Dream” is a story about the extraordinary feat accomplished by young Serbian football players who will turn into genuine stars. They will be idols of their nation and true legends. The story follows their journey from the cobblestone streets of impoverished Belgrade neighbourhoods, their local football matches and an array of challenges they face, up until their departure to the first FIFA World Cup in Uruguay,1930. Inspired by faith, hope and vision, they become a team prepared for great deeds; the initial doubt that surrounds their personal and professional lives is transformed into great friendships, promising love affairs and most importantly a united decision to prove themselves in Montevideo. The film is designed as a long-owed homage, a testimony about a time in which, among all other things, a small Serbia became great thanks to football and its football players.

The Review - a cute feel good and enjoyable film which I really loved being treated to the yummy food and free shit before the film. It always makes a film if there is free shit invovled. So there fore movie + free shit = 3 stars.

“MONTEVIDEO: Taste of A Dream” screening at Cinema Paris from August 18
