Abstract :In this study, the scenes, fiction, dialogues in the Turkish film Zaferin Rengi were analyzed within the framework of some theoretical orientations of the sociology of sport sub-discipline. The film was analyzed in the light of descriptive analysis with themes such as ‘the social function of sport’ and ‘the effect of football on social solidarity’ that can be included in the scope of sociology of sport. In this framework, visual document analysis, which is a field of qualitative-interpretive analysis, was preferred as a method in the study. The article focuses on the outputs of the sociology of sport rather than the theoretical and methodological outputs within the scope of media. Sport is an important research object of sociology as a social and cultural phenomenon. In this context, sociology of sport is a sub-discipline in which studies are carried out to explain the role of sport in social life. Moreover, sports, which is intertwined with social life, has also been the subject of films. One of these films is the 2024 film Zaferin Rengi directed by Abdullah Oğuz. In the film, the role of Fenerbahçe sports club in the period of the National Struggle, as well as the General Harrington cup, which is the most important of the competitions with the occupation forces between 24 May 1918 and 9 November 1923, is the subject of the film. In this context, thanks to the film Zaferin Rengi, which is inspired by real life, the audience reveals the integrative and national consciousness-raising aspect of sports in general and football in particular. In this study, the findings obtained in line with the sample of The Zaferin Rengi were described, interpreted and evaluated using qualitative research techniques in the context of sports sociology.
