The beautiful game

“If people sense that you respect them and their culture, the possibilities are endless,” says photographer Páll Stefánsson of his newest book, Áfram Afríka /  Africa – The Future of Football, a vast project he has been working on for the past three years. In the book, Stefánsson portrays the Africa he sees. “Football is everywhere,” he says. “I wanted to make a tiny difference to our ideas about the continent.”
