The Berlin Offside
Coming of age
Sometimes a game can change the world.
Every afternoon, in a small square in Berlin, eight children get together to play a football tournament. But a wall, raised between East and West the night before the final, separates the two teams forever. The winner will never be decided… or will it? There is still a chance to play one last, memorable game.
-
A story of adventure and rebellion, set against the iron curtain that split Germany in two.
-
World history seen through the eyes of children, for whom there are no such things as barriers and divisions, only obstacles to overcome.
