Brief Explanation

In Palestine, football represents a belief in a better world. One filled with hope and optimism. This is the true story of the Palestinian Women's National Football team and how they would never give up playing, in spite of all the obstacles they face. Coca-Cola supports their passion and encourages them to play on by surprising them with a visit in their homeland from football's greatest trophy, the FIFA World Cup. This was the first time in history that the FIFA World Cup trophy was brought to Palestine. The film was shot documentary style during the FIFA World Cup Trophy Tour by Coca-Cola in Bethlehem, Palestine. Part of the 'World's Cup' Campaign, we wanted to celebrated real people from around the region and their contribution to the game and demonstrate to the people of the region that football is everyone's sport, the World Cup is everyone's trophy, and Coca-Cola is everyone's drink.
