SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
How far would you go to live your dream? When Santiago Munez
(Kuno Becker) is given the chance of a lifetime, he must leave
his family, his life in Los Angeles and everything that he
knows to travel halfway around the globe to England and into
a completely foreign world -- the exciting, fast-paced and
glamorous world of international soccer.
As an underprivileged Mexican-American immigrant growing
up in the poor section of Los Angeles, Santiago seemed destined
to follow his father's path in life: laboring at menial jobs
to earn just enough money to support his family. Naturally
gifted, his amazing talent on the soccer field was wasted
in recreation league games while he could only dream of playing
on the world stage of professional soccer. But when a British
scout (Stephen Dillane) discovers his talent and gets him
a tryout with one of England's premier soccer clubs, Newcastle
United, Santiago must choose between his father's fate and
his own destiny.
Now alone in a world where soccer is a religion and players
are gods, this underdog must prove that he's got the talent
and determination to make it amongst the best in the world.
