The Miami Film Festival presents the North American premiere of “Heysel 85” at 5:15 p.m. Saturday, April 11th.
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.
Fresh off its world premiere and rave reviews at the Berlin International Film Festival, “Heysel 85” utilizes a masterful blend of real archival footage and deft narrative filmmaking to reconstruct one of the darkest events in European football history.
Tickets are $15.50 for the general public and $14.50 for students, military and seniors (62+) with ID. Click on the link above.
