In the Hands of the Gods is a 2007 documentary. The film follows five English freestyle footballers as they try to raise money by showcasing their skills, in order to fund a trip to Buenos Aires to meet their idol Diego Maradona.

Their names are Sami Hall, Danny Robinson, Paul Wood, Jeremy Lynch and Mikey Fisher. They have no money for food travel or accommodation, two of them are actually living on the streets prior to starting on their mission. Their journey takes them through North, Central and South America and tests them both physically and mentally. It is a journey that takes them far from their homes on a trip that will change their lives forever. The title is a reference to Maradona's famous Hand of God goal.

The film was made by Fulwell 73, a UK based production company, founded and run by Leo Pearlman, Gabe Turner, Ben Turner and Ben Winston. The film was directed by the Turner brothers and produced by Leo Pearlman and Ben Winston.
