Goal Dreams is about personal and national identity as seen through a football team like no other. Composed of multiple nationalities, speaking different languages and having no home field, the Palestinian National Football team and its players must overcome obstacles of physical, emotional, cultural and geographic nature just to exist.
How can a team without a recognized homeland, no permanent domestic league, no place to train and with players and coaches scattered around the globe compete in the world of modern football?
The film chronicles the lives of Palestinian players hailing from different parts of the world during the team’s preparation for their most important World Cup 2006 qualification match.
