A Barefoot Dream (2010)
Former Korean soccer player Kim
Won-kang ends up in East Timor to make a living. He attempts to open
a sporting goods store in the impoverished, newly free nation but
soon finds there is something more important to him than earning
money. He ends up coaching the local children – all around 11 years
old – after supplying them with goods from his own store, and he
lands the chance for them to play in an international tournament.
Will the inexperienced team be victorious, or will death grudges tear
them apart, much like their country?
*This
was based on a true story, or “actual events,” so that always
makes a movie more interesting. It's a classic tale of inspiration,
heartwarming and thought-provoking. PG-13 for one F-bomb. I might
watch this again.*
