Zlatan: The Statue

Synopsis

Zlatan looks back on his unlikely journey from the clay pitch in Rosengård to being depicted as a statue in shimmering bronze. A journey that is marked by historic goals, wins and trophies in the top echelons of world football but which is just as much about taking one's place in Swedish society. To go one's own way and embrace what is different, a feeling of exclusion and resistance that Zlatan has managed to turn into a driving force throughout his life. Leo Razzak and Nils Andersson's documentary tells the story of a player who has chosen to embrace Sweden, but in a new way. In Zlatan's way.
