It's known as
the beautiful game. But let's face it,
it's a complicated game, guys. Soccer,
as you like to call it, is like life. Next season,
I think we have a real shot. I'm sorry. Uh, Thomas,
did nobody tell you? You're-- You're fired. Good news is,
you got two options. Option one. That's where
you're currently at. ALEX: Or... RHYS: American Samoa. Are you serious? (TAKE A CHANCE ON ME
BY ABBA PLAYING) TAVITA: We haven't scored
one goal in the history of our country
trying to have a soccer te
am. COMMENTATOR: Goal! They scored again.
Humiliation. TAVITA: Mark my words. Things are going to change. -I got us a new coach.
-PLAYERS: Huh? (TAKE A CHANCE ON ME
CONTINUES PLAYING) Something to drink? Whiskey, beer, wine? Yep, we got all those.
Which one? Whiskey, beer, and wine. THOMAS: It's safe to say
you have zero talent or understanding of the game. Something not right
about this guy. Well, he is white. Coach, you've got the
toughest job on the island. (BOTTLES CLINKING) All we want is j
ust one goal.
One goal. -(PLAYERS GRUNT)
-(WHISTLE BLOWS) THOMAS: Come on, guys! We've worked too long
and hard for this. You've only been here
a few days. THOMAS: What the--? I can't work with these guys. For them, it's like
some sort of game. It is a game, Thomas. That's it, Jaiyah, leadership! Now we're making
some progress. (CHANTING) Dear Lord, thank you for
sending us Mr. Rongen. We've become
quite attached to him. It's like finding
a little lost white kid at the mall and telling him
which
way to go.

Taika Waitit needs to do more projects like this, more indie projects instead of big studio controlled franchise
I watched the documentary at a film festival in Nairobi almost 10 years ago, when they finally scored there were cheers around the theatre like it was a live match, will never forget it
1. Glad to see Taika back 2. This will be the first time I see Michael doing a comedy role and not a villain 😂
Michael Fassbender is back, baby!
This looks like a fun movie and really glad to see Michael Fassbender in the movies again
I'm literally so excited for this, I'm from American Samoa,it's nice to see a little representation for my country
This seems to have a similar feel to it as Hunt For The Wilder-people which I really like. The further Taika gets away from love and thunder, the better.
FINALLY! Only been waiting multiple years since it wrapped production. Hope this is a return to form for Taika ❤
My husband and I were able to see this tonight. They called it an unseen movie. It was worth watching. We loved it. I would watch it again. It was entertaining and kept me excited. Put it this way I wanted to kick the ball around.
big shoutout to taika waititi for shining the light to our island! Samoa to the world!
So glad to see the Michael Fassbender comeback... idc if this was filmed a few years ago it still counts and he's due a return
Taika Waititi, who literally won an Oscar for JoJo Rabbit, deciding to list himself as "Loser of Best Picture for JoJo Rabbit" is PRICELESS
The documentary is also amazing. Yes, this is a true story! The coach actually played with the best players in the world at his time.
my love for Jojo Rabbit still hasn't subsided
So in love with Taika and Fass, that I've almost burst into tears
Taika and Micheal I’m literally so happy, I’ve been waiting for months and I’m just so excited!
This trailer alone warms my heart. Can't wait for the whole movie! 💕
I've been waiting for the next taika movie for so long I'm so excited
Fassbender is the man, great to see him back. My fave actor
That has to be the best team meeting presentation I've ever seen. Short, no fussing about, few words, the point come across super clear
