Plot
The film revolves around a bunch of talented boys in a very remote school Millawitiya Junior School in Kaluwara Eliya. The fate of the children changes when new coming teacher, Samarasekara Sir (played by Manoratne) introduces them to football, an alien game to the children until that point.[6]
Reluctant at first, the kids slowly get into the game. The adults are unsure at first, saying it a waste of time, but as the kids begin to improve and their enthusiasm growing, they support them.
Facing schools outside Colombo, with kids who have almost lifetimes of practice, they move forward. They end up winning against a most renowned school in all of Sri Lanka, making a name for themselves.
