The Two Escobars (2010, ESPN 30 for 30)

The Two Escobars examines the parallel lives of Colombian footballer Andrés Escobar (who scored an own goal at the 1994 World Cup and was murdered 10 days later) and drug lord Pablo Escobar, whose narco money funded Colombian football in the 1980s and early 1990s. It remains ESPN's highest-rated 30 for 30 documentary and was cited by the New York Times as one of the ten best sports films ever made. The documentary asks profound questions about how corruption, violence, and football intersect in societies where the sport is the primary shared cultural institution.
