DESCRIPTION:\n	With director Adam Sobel in person for a panel discussion al
 so featuring Mariam Bhacker (Business and Human Rights Resource Center) an
 d Michael Page (Human Rights Watch) \n	\n	\n	U.S. Theatrical Premiere Enga
 gement \n	\n	\n	Dir. Adam Sobel. 2017\, 92 mins. Digital projection. As th
 e 2018 World Cup begins in Russia\, construction is well underway for the 
 2022 edition in Qatar\, where 1.6 million migrant workers labor and live i
 n the shadows of the same buildings they have been imported to make. By da
 y these men sweat in perilous conditions to build the venues for World Cup
 \; by night they compete in a “workers welfare” soccer tournament\, playin
 g in the same stadiums that will one day host the world’s greatest players
 . The Workers Cup follows one team of men from Nepal\, India\, Ghana\, and
  Kenya whose only common ground is their love for soccer and their desires
  to earn better lives. Each match offers them a momentary escape from the 
 homesickness and isolation they endure as the lowest class in the world’s 
 richest country. Adam Sobel's penetrating and deeply humane documentary re
 veals an ad-hoc community of individuals pursuing universal dreams who are
  nevertheless systematically constrained\, and celebrates a sport that uni
 tes the world yet subjugates the very people who struggle to make its grea
 test event possible. \n\nOpening Night Film of the 2017 Sundance Film Fest
 ival. \n\n\nTickets: $15 ($7 Museum members / free for Silver Screen membe
 rs and above). Order tickets online. (Members may contact members@movingim
