Kicking + Screening Soccer Film Festival is the North America's premier cultural event series dedicated to the beautiful game.
Founded and organized by passionate soccer fans, we can't get enough of the game, its stories, and its storytellers. We live and breathe the soccer lifestyle, and we are dedicated to sharing it with others. That's why K+S is not only a festival, but also a gathering for the entire soccer culture community of North America -- and beyond.
The flagship festival in New York City is held every summer. It is our centerpiece and is a vital, circle-the-date part of the NYC soccer scene. More than just a showcase of soccer films, each K+S festival is a full cultural event, including film screenings, featured speakers, panel discussions, photography/art exhibitions, literary readings, and more.
Our History
K+S was founded in 2009, when a blind date between two fervent soccer and film fans, Greg Lalas and Rachel Markus, quickly evolved into something else: a small festival in New York celebrating soccer culture. That inaugural event sold out, and since then, K+S has gone on to organize festivals in Washington (D.C.), Portland (Ore.), Amsterdam, London, Copenhagen, Prague, Kerala (India), among others.
