14-year-old Rosi from Surinam loves football. Her life changes when she has to move to the Netherlands. Will she overcome the new challenges, gain self-confidence, and make her dreams come true?

Rosi enjoys her life. She has a loving family, a number of friends, and a beautiful house. Rosi is very unhappy when her parents inform the girl that they have to move to another continent. She’s not received with open arms in the school by everyone. Fortunately, thanks to her new friend Jitte, Rosi joins the school football team. The girl is talented and loves football, but she lacks self-belief. Thanks to her teammates, she will learn that cooperation is the key to success and that people should help out each other. Will Rosi finally believe in herself and fulfil her greatest dream of becoming a professional footballer?

The first women’s football team in Poland was founded in 1921 – more than a hundred years ago! It was soon dissolved, though. The next time a team of Polish female footballers was formed was in 1957.
