Welcome to the official website of AGUSKA,
the latest short film from Fact Not Fiction Films.
Bullying is an issue that affects people regardless of their gender or age. Quite often it’s downplayed, swept under the carpet or even ignored. Aguska is a short film that aims to raise awareness by not only focusing on bullying in sport but also how friendship and teamwork can be a powerful way of stopping it.

The film stars legendary actor Simon Callow, World Freestyle football champion and Guiness record holder Aguska, accomplished actress Hannah Baxter-Eve and rising star Tegan Muggeridge. Filmed entirely in Sussex and with the support of local football clubs and organisations, the film focuses on bullying in sport through the experiences of a junior women’s football team.
Featuring Chelsea star Ashley Lawrence and the unmistakeable music of Chumbawumba, Aguska is a film with a strong and powerful message so be sure to support the film and be part of our journey.
“When you’re being bullied, it can feel like you’re utterly alone. That’s why the film’s message is so important: help is out there. Whether the bullying is in a sports team, community, or a school, we want children to know that they can get support. Together, we can stand up to bullying and make it stop”
Bryony Glover – Head of Digital Services – Kidscape
Aguska is the latest film production from Fact Not Fiction Films. Since their creation in 2006, Fact Not Fiction Films have made a large number of captivating documentaries and public awareness short films. These have helped create awareness of a wide range of issues such as dementia, mental health in young adults, PTSD in the military, Lobular breast cancer and now, bullying in sport.
“When I first saw Aguska’s remarkable football skills, I thought this would be amazing to incorporate into a short film. Bullying in sport is an issue I have wanted to tackle for some time and I was really delighted when Aguska agreed to be part of the project.”
