It’s 1956 and the UK has found its first heart throbs of the post-war era - a good-looking and prodigiously talented team of young football players. United is based on the true story of Manchester United’s legendary “Busby Babes”, the youngest side ever to win the Football League. Witness the 1958 Munich Air Crash that claimed eight of their team and experience the extraordinary spirit of a city that rebuilt the team in the wake of the disaster. With a powerful script and its superbly talented cast, United tells how the extraordinary spirit of a community rebuilt the team that became the legend, Manchester United. A must see for fans of football, drama and heroic tales of triumph over adversity.
