Description

Anja is a spirited young girl who loves soccer and doesn’t understand her best friend Lisa’s obsession with boys. Her middle school classmate, Jonas, plays rough and mean on the soccer field (secretly intimidated by her skills). Anja brushes off Jonas with humor and it soon becomes clear that their tensions disguise a first crush. When Anja visits the hospital with an injury, she confronts a surprising diagnosis of leukemia. Anja continues to play soccer, preparing for the big tournament, even while still in the hospital. Her classmates, teacher, doctors, parents, and most importantly, Jonas, come up with a special plan to allow Anja to triumph in spite of her cancer in this touching, youthful drama. For ages 10+.
