Sons of Ben (2015) Synopsis

Major League Soccer began with teams across many U.S. markets, but not Philadelphia. So a small group of die-hard soccer fans came together to form a supporters club for a soccer team that did not exist. Naming their group after famous Philadelphian Benjamin Franklin, the Sons of Ben were created, with only one goal in mind: bring a soccer franchise to Philadelphia. The Sons of Ben started a movement that brought into existence the Philadelphia Union, changing the soccer landscape in Philadelphia forever while helping to revive a struggling community in Chester which had been abandoned by government, business, and its neighbors.
