Description:
Christina, a schoolteacher from a privileged Greek-Australian family, is happily engaged and living a conventional life. Her world shifts when she begins teaching at a working-class inner-city school, where she's challenged by her students. She becomes involved in a campaign by non-Anglo students to start a soccer club, facing resistance from a racist PE teacher who favors Australian Rules Football. Christina develops a relationship with Nick, a 17-year-old aspiring soccer player. This affair pushes Christina to question her values, her family, and her cultural background. The film blends humor with a thoughtful look at modern ethnic relationships in Australia, featuring strong performances from a young cast and a well-crafted story.
