Given the Orange County Otters' proximity Hollywood, it is not a surprise that they tend to pinch above their weight in terms of drawing filmmakers and documentarians to cover their players and the stories around the team, even at times when other teams in the International Simulation Football League are having more success on the field. A group of players on the Otters born in foreign countries were recently approached by a studio interested in creating a series of sports documentaries covering "fish out of water" athletes, and Fullback Leandre Diarra was a natural choice to include given his cult following and his famous athlete father, who played for a Ligue 1 team in France. The documentary covers Diarra's experiences growing up in a household with high expectations of athletic success, the challenges he faced in his early years flaming out of the Olympique Lyonnais youth program, and how he found unlikely success in a sport he had never heard of before enrolling in college abroad in the United States looking for a new start.
