Unlike her tarty older sister, who is preparing for a lavish Indian wedding and a lifetime of cooking delicious dishes, Jess dreams of playing soccer professionally, like her hero, British soccer superstar, David Beckham. Wholeheartedly against Jess' unorthodox ambition, her parents eventually reveal that their reservations have more to do with protecting her, than with holding her back. When Jess is forced to make a choice between tradition and her beloved sport, her family must decide whether to let her chase her dream... and a soccer ball... Bend It Like Beckham is a comedy about bending the rules to be yourself.

A GREAT SPORTS FILM MIXED WITH CULTURE!!

Kathleen on 23.01.2011

It was the Indian cultural aspect that first drew me to the film, but after having seen it a fair few times now, I can also say that I understand much more about the sports side of it too. If you haven't seen this one, you're totally missing out!!
