Kick It Like Beckham (2002)
Die 18-jährige Jess Bhamra, ebenso hübsche wie selbstbewusste Tochter indischer Einwanderer, will englische Fußball-Nationalspielerin werden. Wie ihr großes Vorbild David Beckham von Manchester United. Ihre Mutter, eine traditionsbewusste Hausfrau, hat jedoch ganz andere Pläne mit ihrem jüngsten Spross. Bhamra Jr. soll kochen lernen, Jura studieren und einen netten Inder heiraten. Leicht gesagt, denn neben der Liebe zum Ball ist da noch der junge Trainer Joe, der nicht nur von Jess’ spielerischem Talent angetan ist …
