Summary: In a stilt village on Koh Panyee, a group of Thai boys dreams of playing soccer after watching the World Cup. With no open space, they face a daunting challenge. Only twice a month can they play on a sandbar when the tide is low. Undeterred, they unite to create a floating soccer field, transforming their dreams into reality. Will their ingenuity and determination be enough to overcome the odds? Discover this inspiring true story of creativity and perseverance, where passion for the game leads to an extraordinary solution in an unexpected place.
