Former rugby player and analyst Luca Tramontin originally featured only as a writer, but was eventually convinced by director Massimiliano Mazza and co-writer Daniela Scalia to enact the “Dabs” character that was strongly based on him. Dabs-Tramontin evolved to be the main figure, his personal trade marks, gestures and humor bits have been highlighted since then.[2]

The sixteen year old Nico Tramontin (Luca's son and Hockey Lugano defender) contributed in actor scouting and artistic direction for the youngest characters of the movie.

Production

Writing

“The Legacy Run” like the TV Series “Sport Crime” is a fully fictional work, despite that, Scalia and Tramontin employed an unprecedented approach in writing the screenplay by building the film's plot around a case they witnessed, and asking the sportsman to act themselves nearly in full. This pattern is thought to be the blueprint for the TV Series Sport Crime in which they make ample use of the story they lived as athletes, commentators and anchors for many international TV networks.[3]

Filming

Shooting began in Ticino (Switzerland) in February 2016 and ended in Rijeka (Croatia) in March.[4][5] Mazza's direction purposely mixes different styles, from the most orthodox French oriented long sequence shot and reaction shots to the most sporty quick movement in order to appeal both fiction and sport audiences.

Broadcast

December 4, 2016, "The Legacy Run" had its world premier at Swiss national tv RSI reaching share numbers close to the historic Sunday Sport Show "La Domenica Sportiva".

gollark: My laptop boots in 25 seconds from pressing the power button off my cheap SATA SSD, but that's counting the time-to-usable-desktop, the firmware is quite slow, and I have to enter the disk encryption key and my user password.
gollark: Yes, in raw sequential IO, but I don't think they're massively faster for random read/writes.
gollark: <@306998505862594569> For boot a decent SATA SSD will still be about the same speed.
gollark: Not on the same connector, though: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M.2#Form_factors_and_keying>
gollark: ... *can* you run IDE over PCIe or SATA?Oddly, with different M.2 keys, you can get I²C, USB, DisplayPort, audio, SIM card connectors, SMBus, SDIO, UART and PCM on a M.2 card. I don't know why they added support for this.
