Faith vividly portrays football as a modern religion, embracing its near-sacred significance. The film eloquently and wordlessly explores the deep-rooted connection between the phenomenon of football fandom and Italy’s cultural fabric, in doing so drawing striking visual parallels with Catholicism. The film’s cohesive style and blue-nuanced colour palette, along with its keen observational eye for peculiar detail, immerses us in the heightened atmosphere of the present. As the director himself notes, ‘in no other place than Naples is the love for the profane so deeply felt that it becomes a cult, to the point that it rises to something much more precious… something sacred’.
