With contributions from friends, teammates, family members, and experts in the field of sports, this emotionally-charged documentary explores the highs and lows of Best's meteoric rise to fame.

Born in Belfast in 1946, Best grew up in a working-class family and began playing football at a young age. By his late teens, he had been signed by Manchester United and quickly gained a reputation as a gifted player with incredible speed, agility, and dribbling skills. Over the course of the 1960s, Best helped lead Manchester United to a number of championship wins, including the 1968 European Cup Final.
