kids who want to play their favorite sport, but their mother or
father don't want them to. He then is either spotted by a scout,
assigned to a trainer, or becomes part of a winning team. Then the
parent relents, supports the kid and the kid goes on to win. The
sport can be football, baseball, hockey, spelling bees, etc. This
time we have soccer. The film opens with young Santiago Munez and
his family escaping across the border from mexico to America. They
