The Workers Cup Film
@workerscup
A very human documentary inside Qatar’s labour camps where migrant workers building facilities for #WorldCup #Qatar2022, play in their own football tournament.

"A superbly moving documentary...that should really be shown to every team going to Qatar in November." A great write up in today's @Independent by @MiguelDelaney independent.co.uk/sport/football…
Thinking about the security of the people who have little or no safety net working in #Doha. As well as all the people who have escaped war zones to find peace in Qatar. Workers man, clean, build, protect every part of #Qatar including the airbases and other military spaces.
“@FIFAWorldCup today announced…with #Qatar… $50m Legacy Fund for the #Qatar2022 World Cup. The fund DOES NOT include any compensation for affected workers, though it provides some funding…to protect workers from heat stress in the future.” @amnesty amnesty.org/en/latest/news…

“I had lost both my parents before I turned 10; my cousins and uncle were my family. I needed to help them... I hedged all my bets on a Gulf job.” Powerful testimony from a man building his life in #qatar @MigrantRights #workerrights migrant-rights.org/2024/09/dreams…
“The hope in these stories usually comes from people helping one another (in the face of still other people’s hostility or indifference).” Thank you @AltaJournal for the recognition. altaonline.com/california-boo…
nytimes.com/athletic/55455… great work by @EquidemOrg and @nytimes “Newcastle United sponsor Noon and shocking allegations of worker mistreatment” @NUFC #saudi is the likely hosts of the @FIFAWorldCup in 2024. #football #soccer #humanrights
A powerful interactive about the lives of domestic workers by the extraordinary team @MigrantRights migrant-rights.org/infographics/i…
We are big supporters of women’s football here @FIFAWWC but also of the #workers who make it all possible. We wish this was not so predictable (by @EquidemOrg ) equidem.org/blogs/global-f…
Among such extraordinary films! Thank you @RottenTomatoes editorial.rottentomatoes.com/guide/best-soc… Number 18….
Another thousand pounds of donations in our PayPal account for the men in our film, to help them fulfil their dreams. Huge thank you to all who have chosen to support them (and us) in 2022.
Brilliant innovative storytelling here about how professional #football #soccer player Abdul Aziz Suleiman was tricked into coming to work rather than play in #Qatar2022 africa.businessinsider.com/news/i-was-a-p… @fairsqprojects @natashaiskander
In the company of legends. Thank you @nytimes nytimes.com/2022/12/12/mov…
