Synopsis

Mona is eleven years old and belongs to a Kurdish family of seven who escaped from Syria to Berlin. They live in Wedding (Berlin), a place where most of the kids in her new school are from other countries. The school is a mess. The teachers are losing their minds and the students are getting more and more angry every day. Mona feels the same way. She doesn’t know much German, but she knows how to play football. She used to play with her friends on the streets of her old city. She misses her home, her friends and especially her aunt Helin. Her aunt was the one who always encouraged Mona to follow her football dreams. But Germany is nothing like her home. Then Mr Che, a caring teacher, sees how good Mona is at football and picks her for the girls’ team. But that doesn’t make things any better. Mona is seen as an outsider and it’s hard to get along with the other girls on the team. They all have their own problems but they soon realize that they can only win if they work as a team.
