Bend It Like Beckham
As an Indian family tries to educate their daughter, a kaleidoscope mix of culture and color clashes hilariously. Jess is not like Pinky her tarty older sister, who is getting ready for an Indian wedding. She also wants to spend a lifetime cooking perfect chapattis. Her parents initially resisted Jess’s unorthodox ambition but eventually realized that they were more concerned with her safety than holding her back. Her family has to decide whether Jess can pursue her soccer dream and follow tradition or not.
