Vasermil

The story of three teenagers who live in the same tough neighborhood, growing up in an unforgiving environment, pinning their hopes on football as a way out. The three teens are recruited by the coach of their local football team to take part in the Beer Sheba open youth championship, held at the “Vasermil” stadium. Learning to work together as a team is the key to success in the tournament. In order to play as a team they have to overcome their differences, their sense of inferiority and their prejudices. Success in the tournament means getting noticed by the scouts of the local football Leagues. But it’s that very same reality of violence, prejudice, crime and despair they try to escape, that comes back to haunt them.
