About this listen

 Fan favourite Edgardo Sepulveda returns to the podcast to discuss the 2006 Iranian soccer film "Offside" directed by legendary Iranian auteur Jafar Panahi. Starring non-professional actors, and shot on location in Tehran outside Azadi Stadium, during the real-life 2005 World Cup qualifier between Iran and Bahrain, "Offside" acts as a cinema-verite with its documentary-like feel.
Edgardo and Rachael break down some of the main themes in the film, and offer a comparison to other female-focused soccer movies (Bend It Like Beckham).
