Additional information

Taika Waititi). During Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we will be screening films directed by and exploring Asian American Pacific Islander voices. Next Goal Wins follows the infamously terrible American Samoa soccer team, known for a brutal 2001 FIFA match they lost 31-0. With the 2014 World Cup Qualifiers approaching, the team hires down-on-his-luck, maverick coach Thomas Rongen, hoping he will turn the world's worst soccer team around in this humorous and heartfelt underdog story. Rating: PG-13. Runtime: 97 minutes.
