The film is co-directed by Chris Kelly (The Slowest Show, This Is That) and was shot in Rome, Portugal, and locations across the U.S. The Holy Game offers an exclusive look at an officially sanctioned Vatican soccer tournament for priests.
The film explores religion, sport, and tradition, and examines why people around the world still sacrifice so much to become a priest.
The film will also be having its festival premiere as a part of the Kicking + Screening Festival in New York City (online) on June 24.
