In a small Kyrgyz village, where conservative traditions confine women to domestic roles, activist Gazi defies the status quo by organizing a women's football tournament. As she works to empower the women and break societal taboos, she faces cultural resistance. The film reveals how sports — the purest expression of joy and freedom — can become a powerful tool for resisting oppression and promoting gender equality in even the most rigidly traditional setting.
