75 mins. English
Q + A session with director Tim Pritchard, the coach of the South-African team Biza Maldano and John Wroe from Momentum Arts
Following the South African team, the Umthombo Young Stars, throughout the Street Child World Cup in Durban in 2010, this is a heartwarming story of determination, spirit and hope. Emerging from varied backgrounds of poverty and crime, the children need to show discipline and willpower to turn their backs on the attractions of the street. Through the trials and tribulations that they need to overcome, one question remains unanswered: once it is all over, will the children go back to their former lives?
