The Coach

Oleg Kirillov is a coach of an unusual team – the team that plays intuitive football. His players are members of the Belarussian mini-football national team for visually impaired. Each of them ended up at the football field for a different reason, but all of them have a shared goal – to retain the champions' status in the national competition. Kirillov himself was raised in a family with disabled members and knows well how to communicate with his visually impaired players. He is not just a coach, but a friend for every one of the sportsmen. An important part of this movie is a sound design, that completely reconstructs the acoustic environment natural for the players, in which they orientate by hearing – reacting to the sounds of the ball and the coach’s instructions.
