To escape troubling memories, he's sent to Canada to stay with friends of the family. He finds an escape from the sorrow of his loss by joining his school's soccer team; he also finds himself falling for the daughter of his soccer coach. But winning her heart proves to be every bit as challenging as winning a hard-fought soccer game, as he learns some hard lessons about life, love, and the playing field. The cast includes Giancarlo Giannini, Burt Young, and Simone Corrente. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
