More about the Documentary

Kenny Dalglish narrates his own journey, joined by his wife Marina and closest footballing friends Graeme Souness and Alan Hansen and other fans.

Drawing from hundreds of hours of archival footage, including never-before-seen personal clips from his playing career and home life, the film reveals his remarkable story – a great player and an extraordinary, witty, and humble hero of Liverpool, Glasgow, and the world of football.

With skill, strength, flair, and sharp humour, the Scotsman is one of the club’s and Europe’s greatest players and a true icon of the sport for what he did off the pitch as much as on it.

Asif Kapadia commented: “Kenny Dalglish was my hero as a kid and I had his picture on my wall in North London where I grew up.  I wanted to make this film for people like me who remember Kenny as a player, the Celtic, Liverpool and Scottish fans, but also for my kids’ generation who only know Kenny from playing FIFA.  They know the name but they have never seen how good he was as a player or, more importantly, what he did off the pitch for the people of Liverpool.  Kenny was the leader who always stepped up and led us when we needed him.”
