A new four-part documentary series, 'A Beautiful Obsession,' is scheduled to premiere on Amazon Prime this Wednesday. The series offers an inside look at the final two seasons of Pep Guardiola’s tenure as manager of Manchester City. Unlike many sports documentaries that function as promotional material, this production is described as notably unfiltered.

The series specifically focuses on the difficulties encountered during the 2024-25 campaign. During this period, Manchester City experienced a significant decline in form, described as a 'mid-winter plunge.' According to reports, the team struggled through a difficult stretch that included nine defeats and only one victory over the course of 13 matches.

While the documentary was filmed and controlled by Manchester City, it reportedly avoids the common pitfalls of a 'hagiography'—a biography that idealizes its subject. Instead, it captures the team during a period where their competitive aura was challenged. The series aims to provide viewers with a behind-the-scenes perspective on how the manager and the squad navigated these professional setbacks.
