Avatar

FIFA and Qatar’s Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy (SC) have just launched a brand-new TV series that’s set to bring all the feels from the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 right to your screen. Titled ‘WE WERE THERE’, this 8-part series is narrated by none other than Star Wars’ Daisy Ridley and dives deep into the human stories that made last year’s tournament so unforgettable.

Co-produced by Noah Media Group and HBS, ‘WE WERE THERE’ isn’t your typical sports docuseries. Sure, it covers the biggest moments on the field, but it goes beyond the headlines to explore the personal journeys of key players, coaches, and fans who lived through the highs and lows of the tournament. Each of the 30-minute episodes is like a mini documentary, with a multi-layered narrative that gives you an inside look at what it was really like to be there.

The series is packed with some serious insider access. We’re talking about unseen footage from FIFA’s archives, exclusive looks inside the stadiums, and even moments from the dressing rooms that most fans never get to see. Plus, it’s got contributions from World Cup-winning Argentina stars like coach Lionel Scaloni, Golden Glove winner Emiliano Martínez, and striker Julian Alvarez, to name a few. But it’s not just the players who get the spotlight—French coach Didier Deschamps, Portugal’s Bruno Fernandes, Morocco’s Yassine Bounou, and other global football stars share their unique perspectives, too.

And then there are the fan stories. ‘WE WERE THERE’ captures the passion and dedication of supporters from around the world, like the Saudi fan who walked across the desert to watch his team take down Argentina, or the young mascot who had a special moment with France’s Kylian Mbappe. These stories, combined with the memories of those who took part on the pitch, paint a vivid picture of what it meant to be part of the FIFA World Cup 2022.

Directed by Luke Mellows, known for his work on Ben Stokes: Phoenix from the Ashes, and produced by Noah Media Group’s Tarun Thind, this series is a must-watch for any football fan who wants to relive the magic of Qatar 2022. It’s a chance to see the World Cup from a totally new angle and to connect with the stories that made it a tournament for the ages.

So, if you’re looking to dive back into the world’s biggest sporting event and see it in a whole new light, ‘WE WERE THERE’ is your ticket. Catch it now, and get ready to be transported back to the heart of Qatar 2022.
