Fifa’s film United Passions was sent for an early bath at the US box office، after takings of just over $600 (£394) from its opening weekend.
Frédéric Auburtin’s film، funded by the football governing body and starring Tim Roth as Sepp Blatter، scored $607 from its 10-cinema limited run، according to the Hollywood Reporter.
One cinema، the FilmBar in Phoenix، Arizona، reported one ticket sold، a site take of $9.
Budgeted at somewhere between $25-32m، United Passions received three-quarters of its funding from Fifa.
The organisation is in crisis after multiple officials were arrested by the FBI for racketeering، fraud and money laundering. Blatter، Fifa president for 17 years، quit last week just four days after winning re-election.
