The Corinthians: We Were The Champions (PG) at HOME, Manchester

The Corinthians: We Were The Champions (PG)

This is the incredible real-life story of the original rebel girls of football – The Corinthians Ladies FC from Manchester – who defied The FA’s 50-year ban on women playing to become global champions.

Told exclusively by 10 surviving players, this is the first feature-length documentary to reveal the incredible tale of how a gang of working-class girls from Manchester took on the all-male establishment and won.

At a time when women were banned from playing on any official football pitches in England, the Corinthians found fame in top stadiums around the world. Beating Germany to a European Cup in 1957, and winning an unofficial World Cup in 1960, they were one of the most successful women’s teams the UK ever had. Yet, for decades, their world-beating triumphs were forgotten.

Now, The Corinthians: We Were The Champions reveals the full, raucous, rebellious story, from the women who were there.

Packed with unseen archive, forgotten footage of the team in action, comic style animations and a punk girl soundtrack, it’s a rollercoaster ride to a nail-biting final.
