Highlights in the life of French footballer and Manchester United star Paul Pogba come roaring to life in these animated sequences from Paris animation studio Jungler for the Amazon limited series The Pogmentary.

Jungler EP Sébastien Pribile: “Much more than a documentary series, the idea at the heart of this project is to transport the viewer into a world that is usually unattainable, the intimacy of a soccer star.

“We produced all the 2D animation sequences for the series, which totaled almost 10 minutes. The character of Paul is so unique and fascinating, the use of animation allowed us to illustrate the main moments of his life, put his past into pictures, and feel his emotions.”
