The deadly 1985 Brussels’ Heysel Stadium riot pulls a mayor’s daughter and an Italian-rooted journalist into a moral and personal reckoning at the center of the tragedy.

synopsis

When violence erupts before the 1985 European Cup Final between Liverpool and Juventus at Brussels’ Heysel Stadium, killing 39 people, the mayor’s daughter and a journalist with Italian roots are drawn into the heart of the tragedy, caught between professional duty, family loyalty, and moral responsibility.
Wanneer er geweld uitbreekt voor de finale van de Europa Cup I tussen Liverpool en Juventus in het Heizelstadion in Brussel in 1985, waarbij 39 mensen om het leven komen, belanden de dochter van de burgemeester en een journalist met Italiaanse roots in het hart van de tragedie, verscheurd tussen hun professionele plicht, loyaliteit aan hun familie en morele verantwoordelijkheid.
