The scale of the tournament is monumental: lavish sponsors, extensive television coverage, merchandising on every street corner and crowds of over 100,000 wild fans who match after match turn the legendary stadium into an inferno. The media are in adoration and the atmosphere evokes the greatest moments in the history of international football. But this tournament is different from all its predecessors: it is all women on the pitch, and you will probably never have heard of them. This is the incredible story of Copa 71, the first unofficial women's World Cup. Disowned by FIFA and all national football federations, the tournament was completely erased from history. Until today.
As part of the Docu.emme exhibition
