DESCRIPTION:
(from Paramount+'s web site, December 2023) Trevor Noah takes a unique look at the world through its most popular game. More than any other sport, soccer functions as a mirror to society. Sometimes that shows us the best of ourselves, other times, the very worst. Across five episodes, Noah uncovers stories from the USA, Brazil, France, Qatar and the UK, looking at players and coaches fighting against the status quo and ultimately posing the critical question: if we can reform soccer, can we reform the societies it reflects?
