Description

Hassan loves playing soccer, hanging out with his friends and eating his mother's home-cooked meatballs. But as calls for revolution begin to echo across Syria, his country is thrusted into an era of chaos. As trouble creeps closer to his hometown, Hassan's friends flee Syria, one-by-one, to seek a better life abroad. One day, when his family suddenly decides to leave as well, Hassan is forced to abandon everything he knows, including his remaining friends, his school, and the soccer field he so dearly loves. Little does he know that his journey is just beginning. In this tale of migration and acceptance, inspired by true stories, an innocent Syrian boy is upended from everything he knows after his family flees his war-torn homeland in search of a better life.
