What happens when THE FULL MONTY crosses paths with BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM, all with a touch of pink? A soccer goalkeeper is kicked out of the league when they discover he's gay. In defiance, he forms his own all-gay team and ultimately faces off against his old mates. Sweet, entertaining and deliriously uplifting, this action-packed film is, without a doubt, a major crowd pleaser.
