Фильм — история о фанатах гамбургского футбольного клуба Санкт-Паули (FC St. Pauli). Санкт-Паули появился в одноименном районе Гамбурга более 100 лет назад и выступает в Первой Бундеслиге. У клуба довольно скромные достижения, но он известен во всем мире благодаря политическим веяниям, которых придерживаются его сторонники: они активные борцы за расовое равенство и женское равноправие. Болельщики клуба часто устраивают различные антифашистские митинги, именно их воззрения нередко приводят к столкновениям с фанатами других клубов. Клуб Санкт-Паули стал одним из символов панк-хардкор культуры во всем мире. Магнус, молодой человек из обеспеченной семьи, и Ковальский, выходец из низшего класса, — герои фильма «Спина прямая — никто не выигрывает на Миллернтор». Их объединяет страсть к футболу и, особенно, к любимому клубу Санкт-Паули.

The Kelly Family: Cover the Road
Michael Patrick Kelly, Jimmy Kelly
This is a strange little movie. It's partly a road movie. It's partly a documentary. It's partly a backstage pass. It's a strange little movie that takes a look at an extraordinary group of people - The Kelly Family. It's a strange little movie shot during the course of their winter tour of 2002 / 2003 on the roads of mainland Europe through Germany, Holland and Belgium. It's a strange little movie about life, about love, about loss... about the future. Actually, mostly it's a movie about the future, about the road ahead, about the next concert, about the next song... about the music. In fact above all it's about the music, because this is the Kelly Family and first last and always it's about the music.
