Description:

Jess Bhamra, a talented young woman from a traditional Indian household in London, finds herself torn between her passion for soccer and the expectations of her overprotective parents. As she goes about her daily routine, Jess accidentally catches the eye of Jules Paxton, a member of a semi-professional women's soccer team. Impressed by Jess's hidden skills, Jules convinces her to join the squad and embark on an exhilarating journey that tests Jess's loyalty to both her sport and her family.In an effort to maintain her dual life, Jess concocts elaborate lies to keep her soccer commitments concealed from her parents. The high-stakes game of deception soon becomes the least of Jess's concerns as she finds herself grappling with a complex romantic attraction towards her coach, Joe. As emotions run deep and stakes rise, Jess must ultimately decide which path will lead her to true happiness - embracing her love for soccer or succumbing to the pressures of family expectations.
