Kill the RefereeYves Hinant

Only a few seconds of a soccer game will do to turn the life of an entire family upside down. It is even more so for referees than for soccer players. For Kill the Referee, director Yves Hinant was granted unlimited access to EURO 2008 in order to follow the top referees from the catacombs of the stadium onto the field. The impact of the large amount of media attention becomes clear as referee Webb receives death threads after a decision against Poland. Even the Polish prime minister states that he "wishes to kill someone". Before the tournament, he even got tipped off as referee for the finals, but because of the political uproar that arises, his opportunities start to shrink.
