Goal Dreams is a compelling story of the building of the Palestinian National soccer team, but an even better human drama. The film puts a face on the Palestinian people from Gaza and the West Bank, as well as the diaspora, from Lebanon, Egypt, Europe, the US, and Latin America. Unlike the Palestinian people most frequently portrayed in the Western media, these soccer players peacefully face many obstacles in their quest for recognition. The filmmakers have done an excellent job counting down the thirty days to a crucial World Cup qualifying match against Kazakhstan, blended with the players' personal stories that help weave the story of the Palestinian people.
