Synopsis
True Story of Lev Yashin, iconic Soviet-Russian football goalkeeper, considered by many to be the greatest goalkeeper in the history of the game. Nicknamed as "The Black Spider" or "The Black Panther", he was known for his athleticism in goal, imposing stature and reflex saves. An ordinary working class boy loves football and, like his peers, dreams of one day becoming a goal scoring striker. But wherever he plays, in the yard, at the factory or during his military service, he is always sent into goal. What seems like bad luck gradually becomes a story about talent, determination and finding his true place in the world of football.
