Life after football

In a partnership with UEFA that began in 2019, we have produced a series of films showcasing the inspiring journeys of former players as they transition into new careers. Through documentaries and promotional content, we highlight the stories of athletes who, after dedicating their lives to football, are reinventing themselves in new roles.

APPROACH

We sought to imbue these stories with human depth, portraying the challenges and opportunities inherent in post-football career transitions. Each episode, designed as a mini-documentary, combines intimate interviews, archival images, and everyday moments — with storytelling rooted in emotion and authenticity.

LEADERS

We also created promotional films for UEFA’s academic programs, which prepare the next generation of leaders in the sports industry. With high-profile participants including Kaká, Julio César, Nigel de Jong, and Sami Khedira, these films showcase these programs’ ambition and influence.
