I Am Zlatan - Expat Cinema

On November 14 2012, Sweden played a friendly match against England. Well into injury time, Sweden was leading 3-2, the English goalkeeper wanted to clear the ball outside the penalty area, but Zlaten Ibrahimović was quicker and managed to score from over 20 meters away. This improbable goal, considered by many to be one of the most beautiful ever, makes it clear that his talent was almost otherworldly.

The Swedish-born son of a Bosnian father and Croatian mother had only one dream as a child: to become a professional footballer. During his difficult childhood, he tried to fight his way up from a deprived neighborhood in Malmö with his unique soccer talent as his only trump card. Against all odds, Zlatan Ibrahimović grew into an international soccer phenomenon with a professional career at top clubs like Ajax, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain and AC Milan. Not only did he break many records, he is still the Swedish international with the most goals to his name. Based on the biography I, Zlatan by writer/journalist David Lagercrantz.
