This project focuses on how history is constructed and performed in the Swedish football context. The cyclical character, intensity and speed of events around a football club make it into a captivating historical experiment. The time span is roughly 50 years, from 1960s-1970s to the present. Thus, the project has two layers: performing history and also historical perspective on this process.
