Feast your senses on this visceral and electrifying mosaic of soccer’s uber fans, famed for staging monumental collective displays that transform global stadiums into churning cauldrons of sound and colour. Known as “ultras,” these hardcore supporters often contribute as much to the match-day atmosphere as the on-pitch action. They’ve also been known to clash with authority—a byproduct of the rebellious energy and contagious fervour that powers this worldwide subculture. Filmmaker Ragnhild Ekner extends an insider’s invitation to meet vibrant fan communities in Argentina, Egypt, England, Indonesia, Italy, Morocco, Poland and Sweden. Her approach is thrillingly cinematic and deeply immersive, exalting in the spirit of defiant fellowship that is pushing back against the steady commodification of the beautiful game. Before FIFA brings its flagship product to Toronto next summer, Ultras is your ticket to an authentically awe-inspiring terrace experience. Julian Carrington.
