Task 16 CLIL d) Create an ESL video
The following task is a video about the documentary 'When we were Kings'. This documentary talks about Muhammad Ali's life, speacilly focussing in the match aganist George Foreman. It was directed by Leon Gast in 1996 and won an Oscar Award for Best Documentary Feature.
I would like to recommend the whole documentary to my students and to everyone in general. A lot of people know who is this boxer, but not all the them know about his life, what happened to him and why he refused to fight in Vietnam, He always looked for the freedom of everyone and he was a great orator.
