Trailer

"Seau," directed by Kirby Bradley, recaptures the GLORY days of NFL great Junior Seau while foreshadowing a tragedy that would rock the league. Seau was a legend long before he retired from the NFL -- surrounded by a passionate fan base, deep respect from his peers and a loving family, he experienced a unique sense of purpose that extended BEYOND the playing field.

Despite appearing to have everything, his decision to end his own life at 43 remains both deeply disturbing and largely unexplained. This revealing account of the Hall of Famer's life and death seeks answers, exploring the remarkable path from an immigrant Samoan family to NFL stardom, and the many obstacles faced throughout two decades spent as an American football icon at the heart of a brutal and unforgiving game.
