2002. Directed by Gurinder Chadha. Runtime: 1hr 52min. Rated PG-13.
Jess Bhamra, the daughter of a strict Indian couple in London, is not permitted to play organized soccer, even though she is 18.

Jess uses elaborate excuses to hide her matches from her family while also dealing with her romantic feelings for her coach, Joe.
