The film supports the incredible athletes from the Sierra Leonean football team, Flying Star Amputees, comprised of players who are all victims of civil war amputations. We speak to the team’s new ambassador, former professional, Jonathan Richter, who is listed as one of the unluckiest footballers in the world after being struck by lightning during a game – and afterwards had one leg amputated. The film shows how football can help bring joy, confidence and hope for a better future for the disabled in Sierra Leone.
