This dramatic film is based on the real lives of children living in the Aida refugee camp, where conditions are often oppressive. It expresses the basic yearning of youth to have a safe place to play soccer in the absence of parks and sport facilities in their camp.

Filmmakers: Maysan Saed, Murad Karaja, Mohammad Qassim, Mohammad Waleed, Aboud Al Azzeh, Ahmad Al Araj and Mohammad Faris.

The film was produced during the Digital Storytelling Workshop conducted by Voices Beyond Walls at the Lajee Youth Center in the Aida refugee camp near Bethlehem, West Bank in August 2008.
