COLIN FARRELL NARRATES ON KICKING IT

By Kat - COLIN FARRELL NARRATES ON KICKING IT, January 22, 2008 05:09 PM

This Saturday, Kicking It, the documentary about the story of the Homeless World Cup, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah. Narrated by Colin Farrell, the film chronicles the lives of seven players taking a once in a lifetime opportunity to represent their country at the Cape Town 2006 Homeless World Cup. Najib from war torn Afghanistan; Alex from the slums of Kenya; Damien and Simon from the drug rehab clinics of Dublin, Ireland; Craig from the streets of Charlotte, North Carolina; Jesus from the overflowing public shelters of Madrid, Spain, and Slavan from the shadow culture of the illegal rural immigrants to the big city of St. Petersburg, Russia.

Colin Farrell was up for a chat about his thoughts on the film, homelessness and football. Warm, disarmingly open and honest, with a sincere heart and genuine concern for the players and the global issue of homelessness and an appreciation for the work of the Homeless World Cup. Here's is what he had to say in the article here:
