''Tom meets Zizou – Not a Midsummer Night’s Dream'' (German title: ''Tom Meets Zizou – Kein Sommermärchen'') is a documentary film by Aljoscha Pause made in 2011. The film deals with the life and career of professional football player Thomas Broich. ==Background and story== From 2003 to 2011, Aljoscha Pause made a long-term film documentary about former Bundesliga professional Thomas Broich. It traces Broich’s career in the German Fußball-Bundesliga which began promisingly but ended after numerous professional and personal setbacks with a transfer to the Australian club Brisbane Roar〔("Drive for fame a bumpy road for Brisbane Roar star Thomas Broich" ) by Marco Monteverde, ''The Courier-Mail'' (26 October 2011)〕〔("Ich habe Verachtung gegenüber meinem Beruf gespürt" ), ''Die Zeit'' (March 2011) 〕 in 2010. The result of some 40 meetings and interviews that generated more than 100 hours of raw footage over eight years, the 135-minute cinema documentary entitled ''Tom meets Zizou – Not a Midsummer Night’s Dream'' debuted as the opening film of the 8th International Football Film Festival “11mm” in Berlin on 25 March 2011.〔(''Zu Besuch bei Filmemacher Aljoscha Pause: Tom meets Zizou – Kein Sommermärchen'' ), 11freunde.de, 25 March 2011 〕 The film was distributed nationwide by ''mindjazz pictures'' with an opening date of 28 July 2011. The project enjoyed the support of the DFB Cultural Foundation. The film was released on DVD and Blu-ray in late 2011 and was screened at international festivals including the International Young Audience Film Festival in Posen,〔''Tom Meets Zizou'' at (29th International Young Audience Film Festival Ale Kino )〕 the Thinking Football Film Festival in Bilbao,〔''Tom meets Zizou'' at (Thinking Football Filmfestival 2013 )〕 The CINEfoot Festival in Rio de Janeiro and the Flutlicht Film Festival in Basel (on 1 February 2014 in a double feature with “TRAINER!” on the topic of “Failure”). “Tom meets Zizou” has been translated into English, Polish, Spanish and Portuguese. German broadcaster WDR showed a 90-minute TV version on 21 August 2012. The film’s title is a reference to Broich’s former email address, tommeetszizou@aol.com and Broich’s then-hero Zinedine Zidane, nicknamed "Zizou". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tom Meets Zizou」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
