Nico Williams explained on Monday, after the presentation of the documentary ‘The Williams’ in Bilbao, that the message that the work wants to convey is that “people who come from outside do not come to do any harm.”
“People who come from outside don’t come to do any harm, they come to earn a living, to work and to achieve a better future ,” stressed the international winger and star at Athletic Club.
For the Williamses, “the film is a clear example of this ” and they hope that this message “reaches a lot of people because it is important.”
“That is the legacy we want to leave behind from the documentary. Our story was already known in the Basque Country, but I think it can reach further and, above all, that people can empathize and help without receiving anything in return, which is what the Williams family has had from many people who have helped us without receiving anything in return,” added Iñaki.
In this sense, the eldest of the Williams brothers is hopeful that the documentary about his life and that of his brother, also with a prominent role for his parents and grandfather, “will cross borders and change many mentalities.”
The play, directed by Raúl de la Fuente, reviews the lives of the Williams brothers, their families, including the one they have in Ghana, the country from which their parents emigrated, and those of their closest people.
At the presentation of the work in Bilbao, which premiered last week at the San Sebastian Film Festival, the Williams were accompanied by their close people in the capital of Biscay and in Pamplona during the years in which they lived in the Navarrese capital.
They were also supported by the bulk of the Bilbao team’s squad, which this week has an important match against Roma in the Italian capital, and the president, Jon Uriarte, among various personalities.
