The film is driven by strong protagonists who defy patriarchal society, Islamic dogmatism and economic crisis to train in shorts and baseball caps on a dusty field in a Khartoum suburb. Quite literally in a \u203aplayful\u2039 way, Zein succeeds in breaking down stereotypical clich\u00e9s and showing the absurdity of gender roles in a manner that Western audiences could also learn something from. Interestingly, the boldest scene is simultaneously the most poetic, lifting the film out of the predefined framework of a documentary: In a montage of close-ups, a female and a male body meld into an abstract, sensual landscape \u2013 gender segregation, one of the backward dogmas of a country that has been under Islamic sharia law since the late 1980s, is softened in a painterly way. The courage shown by the Saudi Arabian born film-maker in taking such a shot is equal to the courage of her football players who refuse to be intimidated by interrogations and other harassment by the government.
