Episode 4: Sri Lanka (Colombo-Kilinochchii) Soccer Boots Delivery
June 11, 2018 • 24 min
In the heart of Jaffna, Sri Lanka, lies a village in Kilinochchi with a remarkable story. In a country known for its recent pain of civil strife and its love of Cricket, a group of teenage girls have decided to form a soccer team and bend it like Beckham. Nothing unusual about that, except that these girls have made it to third spot in the National Soccer League – and are doing so without even the most basic soccer gear – not even a single pair of boots. Host Pei Fen lugs her special delivery of boots onto a train – for the long ride from Colombo to Kilinochchi, but not before encountering unexpected problems along the way. But despite the stress, she presses on – eager to help the girls put the tragic past behind and look forward to a brighter future.
