Welcome to the home of PARIS 75 - The European Cup Final Football Tried To Forget. 

Released on 10 October 2025, the documentary about a season and final that did more than most to cement the identity of Leeds United and its fans, the film became one of the biggest independent box office hits of 2025, winning plaudits from audiences and critics alike. 

 

PARIS 75 will be showing next at a series of Special Anniversary Screenings (see below for details) starting May 27 in Dublin, Nottingham and Scarborough, which includes a Q&A with Leeds Legend Paul Reaney who'll also be appearing at Thirsk's Ritz Cinema on May 31.

 

Join the PARIS 75  Facebook Page for more stories and photographs from Leeds fans who were there, fans who care, and supporters who still sing 'We Are The Champions, Champions Of Europe' fifty years on.

TALKING PARIS75 WITH GER LYNCH
ON THE LEEDS VIEW PODCAST

The story behind PARIS 75... 

Like many other fans, Leeds-born filmmaker Harvey Marcus has been obsessed about the injustices surrounding

Leeds United's controversial defeat to Bayern Munich in the 1975 European Cup for more years than he care to recall. But what made him decide to make a documentary about the match was a chance Facebook connection with Leeds superfan Roy Schofield - a true legend who has not missed a game, home or away, for more than 50 years. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There have been other documentaries about the 1975 European Cup Final, but what makes PARIS 75 special is that this is the fans' story of that European Cup run. Scheduled for a May 2025 release, to coincide with the final's 50th anniversary, the film will also contain other rare footage of the fans and match, as well as interviews with the players involved. But at its heart is Roy's unseen footage and the story of the Leeds fans who were there. Because that is

the story which has never been told and deserves to be told, for now and generations to come. Because it's Leeds

United's supporters who refuse to let football forget who should have lifted the European Cup that year. 

It's the Leeds supporters who have been singing the same song for 50 years now, week in week out,

from the Adamson era to Farke's new dawn - 'We Are The Champions', Champions Of Europe'.

We met up to chat about his vast collection of shirts, programmes, photos and memorabilia, when he revealed his real treasure trove - over thirty minutes of unseen cine-film, shot by Roy, as he

and his friends followed Don Revie's great team across Europe all the way to Paris.

The films begin in 1973, when he captured the team training before that other travesty of

justice, the Cup Winner's Cup Final, and continue through 1974 and the 74/75 season, including every away leg of the team's European Cup run; Zurich, Budapest (where only 60 Leeds supporters received visas to travel into what was then Communist Hungary), Anderlecht, Barcelona and finally, that fateful evening in the Parc des Princes.
