Throughout his career Richie McCaw has always been "intensely private". But two film directors spent an entire year following him around looking to answer the question: who is Richie when he's not on the field?

Kiwi documentary makers Justin Pemberton and Michelle Walshe are not rugby fans, but they did want to tell the bigger story about the former All Blacks captain.

Grabbing their cameras they spent a total of 365 days following McCaw in his final season of captaincy as he led the All Blacks and New Zealand to the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

With "unprecedented access" to him, the team, and his friends and family, Richie and the All Blacks took the filmmakers all around the world and back, culminating with his final triumph at Eden Park.
