Synopsis / In a small village in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan, where conservative traditions confne women to domestic duties, Gazi challenges the status quo by organising a women's football tournament. As she strives to empower the women and break social taboos, Gazi must navigate through cultural resistance, unveiling a compelling story of resilience, and social change in this unique setting.
