Forza Bastia

Forza Bastia

Directed by Jacques Tati and Sophie Tatischeff • 1978 • France

In 1978, Jacques Tati traveled to the city of Bastia on the island of Corsica to document the exuberant lead-up to what would ultimately be a memorably muddy, waterlogged match between the hometown heroes and their visiting Dutch rivals—marking the first time a Corsican team had reached the European Cup finals. Left unfinished by Tati, the editing of FORZA BASTIA was ultimately completed in 2000 by his daughter Sophie Tatischeff.
