It could have been good. Or maybe brilliant. The season after relegation was full of interesting and emotional developments, and it makes you wonder what the makers of Sunderland till I die would have come up with. Unfortunately, Werder Bremen made this themselves, and it shows. The staff, especially the coach are more one-dimensional than they probably really are (his motivational speeches are so dull it hurts). The players are interesting (Füllkrug), but there is hardly any ambiguity. Of all the turmoil we see very little (compare that to Sunderland till I die, where economic consequences of relegation are shown so clearly). And the fan is a nice person, but there must be some folks more interesting than him - we don't learn anything about him other than being a Werder supporter. And why only the one?
In a nutshell:: This is a bland run-of-the-mill documentary which should - and could - have been fascinating...
