A redemptive tale where an avaricious/selfish property developer, tormented by survivor's guilt, becomes a better person through the responsibility of coaching a group of pre-teen children to compete in a summer football (soccer) competition. 

Cross between Coach Carter and Rain Man.

SYNOPSIS:

Property developer Kiko’s (35) motto is to be a ‘millionaire by 40 and retired by 50’. He grew up in the local area and is happy that it’s changing quickly with new money and people moving in and pushing out locals. He lives in a penthouse flat and drives a futuristic sports car. From the outside, he’s living the dream but inside he’s empty, suffering from survivor’s guilt due to a car accident where his brother died. He now hides from human emotion, scared to embrace anything with a heartbeat, in case he loses it again. His focus is on making money.

While renovating a townhouse, a group of children who live, sleep and eat football, break a window and force their two disparate worlds to collide. Despite his better judgment and feeling guilty after he coerces them to clean his car as payback, he agrees to train them for a 5-a-side summer football tournament.

How will Kiko overcome his personal obstacles in communicating with post-millennial, urban kids (short attention spans, computer game addictions and trigger tempers). Will he give up when the going gets too tough? Will he be able to juggle his day job and the coaching? Will the kids be able to make the leap from playing street ball to team ball in time for the competition.

As the tournament approaches, he realizes that his interaction with the children effects a wrecking ball, chain-reaction that challenges not just his vocation but his emotional essence.
