COPA 71
UK, 2023, Documentary, 90 mins

Copa 71 follows the history of the 1971 Women's Football World Cup. A huge event at the time, it was later sidelined by football's governing body and all trace of it faded into obscurity.

Now, this doco seeks to restore this major sporting contest into its rightful place in history as one of the most significant events ever held.

Told by the pioneering women who took part, this is the detailed story (with previously unseen footage) of a spectacular tournament witnessed by record crowds.

"A timely documentary which reveals the fascinating and shocking story of a forgotten moment in football history." – Time Out
