Kenny Dalglish

Description

With skill, strength, elegance and sharp wit, the Scotsman Kenny Dalglish became a true icon of the sport. He played for Celtic and Liverpool FC during a remarkable 22 year playing career. His years at Liverpool, where he was both a key player and later player-manager, marked the club’s most successful era. Dalglish also took over as manager during the most traumatic period in the club’s history. Widely regarded as one of Europe’s greatest footballers, the film shows how Kenny Dalglish became an icon in Liverpool, just as much for what he did off the pitch as on it. In a time when modern football is often shaped by money, power and controversy, Dalglish’s story feels rare: the story of a man with deep integrity, who understood what a football club means to its local community and defended it with all his heart. In this documentary, Kenny tells the story of his life and career alongside his wife Marina and some of his closest friends from the football world. Through extensive archive material, including previously unseen personal footage, Kapadia paints an intimate portrait of a great player and a witty, humble hero of Liverpool and the football world. From Asif Kapadia, the Academy Award winning director of Senna, Amy and Diego Maradona, comes the story of a true football legend.
