Eighteen year-old Jesminder's parents want her to be a nice, conventional Indian girl. But she just wants to play soccer like her hero, David Beckham.

DVD ; full screen.
COMMUNITY REVIEWS
wonder submitted by lekendrick on September 10, 2010, 11:35pm I'd questions like onto is it, because they're athletes? Not at all shocking, or with edge in any way, but puzzling to how pulling together as unlikely pairing such cast for guise of soccer never answered! Suspending disbelief?
Awesome! submitted by haanhl on July 30, 2011, 7:59pm I liked it a lot! It's a fun sort of movie, with some truth in it as well. Definitely not recommended if your looking for something along the lines of horror.
Great! submitted by alumeng.ajl on July 24, 2012, 3:46pm This was a really good film! It was funny and easy to follow, even for people who don't know anything about soccer.
