On the day of the 2002 World Cup Final, two bottom-ranked FIFA teams, Bhutan and Montserrat, played a very different match. Discover the unifying power of sport when a game of soccer is stripped down to its basic elements.

This film is an inspirational meeting of two totally different cultures and an exploration of the unifying power of sport. On June 30th 2002, the day of the Soccer World Cup Final, the two bottom-ranked FIFA teams in the world, Bhutan and Montserrat, played their own match. However, this film is more than just a meeting of two countries - it is about the beauty, the differences and the similarities of the two cultures. It is a film about humanity, hope, and fate. It provides an antidote to the commercial nature of the World Cup, and its high-stakes, high sponsorship environment, as it strips the game of soccer down to its basic elements.
