Credits

Every frame and video here comes from the Messi film, except the image at the top of the home page. All were cropped and colour-graded for this site.

Real people appear only in the film’s own frames. The licences below cover copyright only: they do not clear a person’s image rights or the trade marks on kits. Crests and logos stay blurred as they are in the film. A frame from a CC BY-SA photo stays under that licence, including this crop and grade.
