Documentary about Kurt Landauer, the long-time Jewish president of FC Bayern München, who led the club to its first German championship, was persecuted and forced out of office by the Nazis, and rebuilt the club after the war.

Germany went into the 1994 World Cup as favourites and defending champions, but were knocked out in the quarter-finals. Internal conflicts, media campaigns and malice directed at manager Berti Vogts had led to the supposed ‘eleven friends’ – players such as Lothar Matthäus, Jürgen Klinsmann, Stefan Effenberg, Bodo Illgner and Matthias Sammer – manoeuvring themselves into a collective nightmare within a matter of weeks. ‘Eleven Heroes, One Nightmare’ takes a look behind the scenes of what was a memorable World Cup tournament for Germany and shows how one of the strongest German teams of all time failed spectacularly.
