Joe the First

2025 Movie Documentary

A unique film project for all football fans. Jozef Vengloš has coached on three continents, holds the prestigious FIFA Ruby Order award and was the first foreign manager to work in the English league. Jozef Vengloš has finally received the honour he deserves. The film documentary Joe the First pays respect, reverence and gratitude to the exceptional coach for everything he has done for Slovak, Czechoslovak and European football. The film features football legends Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsène Wenger, José Mourinho, Roy Hodgson and UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin. The Czechoslovakian legends recall his refinement, achievements and humanity and admit that he was ahead of his time. The documentary makers focused on the almost forgotten fact that he was the first foreign coach in the cradle of football, as he accepted the challenge of being manager of Aston Villa FC.

Sir Bobby Charlton: The First Gentleman Of Football poster
FILM

Documentary celebrating the remarkable life of one of England's greatest-ever footballers, Sir Bobby Charlton. Sir Bobby was a key member of the England team that won the World Cup in 1966 and a Manchester United team touched by success and tragedy in equal measure. Charlton survived the Munich air disaster in 1958, which killed several of his teammates, dubbed the Busby Babes. He became a crucial figure in the club's resurgence, winning two league titles and, unforgettably in 1968, the European Cup against Benfica. He received a knighthood in 1994 and was awarded the prestigious BBC Sports Personality of the Year Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008. A fiercely proud Englishman, Charlton was a pivotal figure at Manchester United as an ambassador, club director and close confidante of a succession of managers.

A film which marks the 50th anniversary of England's victory in the 1966 World Cup, and uncovers the truth behind the man who led them to it... Bo66y is a powerful, dramatic and deeply personal portrait of a genuine footballing icon. Moore fought many battles besides those witnessed by millions on the football field. Behind the glory lies the story of a man who faced highs and lows with the same strength and bravery. But he died young, cruelly shunned by the game and by the very people who owed him so much. The story is told by his two wives, his friends and fans, including Pele, Sir Geoff Hurst Harry Redknapp, Ray Davies, Ray Winstone and Russell Brand, and more than 30 others, whose words are mixed with as yet unseen archive footage.
