SHORT FILM: The Grit & The Glory

Posted on 25/11/2009

Over 75 submissions were received from filmmakers from 5 continents when Homeless World Cup and Nike put the call out. 

Buzz Films were chosen and the crew set off in the company of up and coming presenter, Buddy, to capture the 'Spirit, Unity and Victory' of the Milan 2009 Homeless World Cup, which united 500 homeless players from 48 nations to create a radical, lasting change, never seen before in social inclusion initiatives working with homeless people. 

Buddy’s last assignment was for National Geographic with a trip through Outer Mongolia. Watch the short film to find out how Buddy got on at the Milan 2009 Homeless World Cup.

Rate the film and leave your comments on our Youtube channel. And post the link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOVBQWRnBP8) on Facebook and Twitter.  Help get the film out there and let the Homeless World Cup inspire more change.

The Milan 2009 Homeless World Cup took place in the Arena Civica, Sempione Park from 6-13 September 2009. Ukraine were crowned world champions.
