Manchester United: Beyond The Promised Land produces a look into the inner-workings of the world's biggest sports franchise, Manchester United, and the effect this sports phenomenon has on people's lives.

Beginning with a look back at the improbable, almost impossible, comeback against Bayern Munich, the film follows the team into the new season as they carry on where they left off. Tokyo brings Beatles-like mob scenes as the club reigns in the World Club title. We continue with the REDS as they set out to retain their domestic and European titles and go on an unusual winter journey to the home of South American football, Rio de Janeiro.

Off the field we see inside the corporate giant that has just become the first "billion pound" football club - M.U. plc! Inside the boardroom we meet Chairman Martin Edwards and watch "business as usual" as Man-U closes in on megabuck sponsorship deals (Vodaphone's historic 30 million pound kit deal) and builds awareness across the world by organizing football tours to Australia, China, Hong Kong and Brazil.

Fans of the club and sports enthusiasts alike will have the chance to go behind- the-scenes with the world's biggest club -- in the locker room, in the boardroom, on the golf course and on the road. Fans will also be introduced to fans whose passion for M.U. is just a little bit different. We'll also meet some fans who don't like Man-U, a certain crew from rival Leeds is introduced to offer a dose on how the "other half" lives.
