We’re delighted to share Dogwoof’s new trailer, and the latest poster, for Rachel Ramsay and James Erskine’s COPA 71!

It is August 1971. Football teams from England, Argentina, Mexico, France, Denmark, and Italy have gathered at Mexico City’s sun-drenched Azteca Stadium. The scale of the tournament is monumental: lavish sponsorship, extensive TV coverage, merchandise on every street corner, and crowds of over 100,000 roaring fans turn this historic stadium into a cauldron of noise match after match.

But this is a tournament unlike anything that’s happened before. The players on the pitch are all women. And it’s likely you’ve never even heard of it. This is Copa ‘71, the pioneering unofficial Women’s World Cup. Dismissed by both the governing body and domestic football associations around the world, this event had been sidelined in history. Until now.

Have a watch now, love that these stories are coming through, even if it’s disappointing that we never got to see them in the past – check it out:

COPA 71 will be in UK and Irish cinemas from 8^th March 2024
