Brief Explanation

„The Fan“ is the story of a passionate football fan, following his team via ICE train throughout the season. We see typical snippets of his fan life: moments of tension, euphoria, desperation and exhaustion. He breathes football. In the stands, at home – or on the way to and from a game. From time to time there are little hints that our fan is special - like the way he cheers rather intimately when the rest of the stadium explodes. In the last scene we understand that our fan is not only a fan. He’s in a relationship with one of the players who awaits him at the train platform.
