Plot
A film about soccer without a ball and without players The film gives a description of the preventive measures taken by the police to cope with a huge crowd attending a popular spectacle It deliberately and almost completely dispenses with verbal statements allowing atmosphere and original sound to speak for themselves The clipclop of police horses hooves the sound of the engines of police vehicles of helicopters and water cannons of walkietalkies as well as video camera surveillance and the distribution of truncheons on the one hand and the heaving crowd of fans their pleasure their disappointment their shouts of support The chronological record of a peaceful day of soccer does not apportion blame without comment and stimulates discussion weather the special police assignment is really necessary JK
