Like millions of kids around the world, Santiago harbors the dream of being a professional footballer... However, living in the Barrios section of Los Angeles, he thinks it is only that--a dream. Until one day an extraordinary turn of events has him trying out for Premiership club Newcastle United.

With his best friend brutally murdered and his hometown of Houston no longer safe, a young African-American man (Jerome Hawkins) hits the road. He ends up in a small town called Trublin, a bigoted backwater where the locals don't take kindly to people like him. Fortunately, he's befriended by a stranger, who takes him in and helps him adapt to this unwelcoming place.
