Women with balls
In Argentina, where soccer is a man's sport, a group of young women from Villa 31 fight to form their own team. With courage, they overcome many obstacles until they achieve their dream of competing in the Homeless World Cup in Brazil.
Using this story as a starting point, Women with Balls investigates the ignored world of women's soccer in Argentina. The women of Villa 31 and players from different backgrounds reveal that family prejudices and complete abandonment by local authorities conspire against the development of a sport that has grown throughout the world.
These players must fight on and off the field to ensure that the words of the FIFA president come true: "the future of football belongs to women."
