A sports-travel documentary series capturing life in small villages across Greece with their own stadiums and local football teams. The series delves into the unique history of each team and its deep ties to the village's culture and traditions. It follows footballers into their homes, fields, paddocks, and cafés, capturing their everyday lives authentically and unfiltered, leading up to the much-anticipated match day.
With seven cameras, the series records every aspect of the matches—on the pitch, in the stands, on the benches, and in the locker rooms—using strategically placed microphones. For the first time in a Greek game, a player wears a microphone during the match, offering an unprecedented perspective.
This season, Village United embarks on a journey across Greece. Starting in Asprokklisia, Trikala, against Ajax (not the Dutch team, the local one), the journey continues through Achillio in Magnesia, Spili in Rethymno, Katalonia in Pieria, Kontopouli in Lemnos, Polissitos in Xanthi, Mataragka in Aetolia-Acarnania, Chiliodendro in Kastoria, Kallirachi in Thasos, Zaimi in Karditsa and Griva in Kilkis, making 16 trips in total. The show goes wherever football and love for the village thrive.

The historic match between Zaimi and Braimi (28-27 or 27-28, depending on the village) remains a defining moment in the football history of the Karditsa prefecture. Held over half a century ago, this neighboring derby ended with a remarkable 55 goals, but was notably interrupted by an unusual incident: a cow attack.

Over the years, the village of Braimi, now renamed Agiopigi, has seen its team dissolve, while Zaimi, despite its challenges, has persevered. Zaimi, with a population of fewer than 200 residents, has endured significant setbacks, including being hit twice by the devastating storms Ianos and Daniel. Despite these challenges, the town has managed to sustain its football team, which currently competes in the B Division of Karditsa’s local league. The team plays in a field that has suffered multiple flooding incidents, with changing rooms frequently destroyed by the rising waters.

The resilient people of Zaimi, guided by local coach and caretaker Giorgos Tsapaliaris—who even played in Europe with Egaleo—continue to press on, despite the tough conditions. Their team, considered the most underprivileged in the prefecture, faces the harsh realities of being one of the poorest teams. Yet, they persist, supported by the president of the EEZ and the president of the Karditsa EPC.
