Available on Paramount+, Prime Video
TV-G - 'Made in Senegal' is a story about will, dreams, determination, faith, rebellion, courage and love. The film invites us on a journey through Sadio's different and highly diverse worlds from the rural life in a small village in the far south of Senegal to the spotlight of world football by playing for Liverpool FC, even winning the Champions Leagues as number 10 with the world watching... The interaction of animations, documentary scenes, a diverse set of in-depth interviews and archive footage brings Sadio's past to life and creates an exciting and emotional plot. With Sadio as the main narrator, the film reveals us his thoughts, feelings and worldview and lifts the tonality of the film on a very personal level with the intensity and intimacy of a diary. The unique quality of the film Made in Senegal is the potential of its universal societal message - which is beyond football, but happening in the world as one of the most intense years for Sadio and Liverpool FC. To have the courage to take opportunities and to determine your own destiny - Or like Sadio said: You have to believe in yourself and you have to dream because thats what life is about and then everything is possible [French with English Subtitles].
