Fatima works at a small Bir Chifa community teaching local women how to organize and fight for social improvements. She meets the Strait Gazelles, a female football team based in Tangiers. With just a few supporters, the team survives thanks to the passion and the financial struggle of all the girls. During dinner with some friends they come up with an idea to help them: planning a football match against a European team as a means to give them visibility, supporting female football and creating a bridge between cultures.

He began in cinema as director's assistant at age 18 for Fernando Colomo on several films. Later, he produced investigative reports and progrmans for the television channels Sexta, Tele 5, Telemadrid and Antena 3, combining this with the direction of video clips and advertisements for agencies such as GPS, Media Planing and Sony BMG. In 2008 he left his job in television and joined Smiz and Pixel. Selected at the Berlinale's Talent Campus as director, he has since produced and directed four short films that received over fifty international prizes and four feature-length films broadcast on Canal Plus and TVE.
