豆知識

Mighty Penguins is a 2023 sports documentary film about an amateur football team Brentford Penguins, consisting of players with Down's Syndrome, established by former Brentford player Allan Cockram in London, in 2017. The film premiered at the Tribeca Festival in 2023.

Production

The film is part of a wider series called Sports Explains the World, executive produced by John Skipper for Meadowlark Media.

Allan Cockram, who founded the Brentford Penguins in 2017, told Talksport that he received a phone call from producer/director Louis Myles which he thought “was a wind-up at first” about making a documentary about the club and the players. It was co-produced and co-directed by Ahmed Twaij, and produced by All a Dream Productions and Firelight Media.
