Part 1

Zelia is a proud Brazilian kid, on the cusp of adolescence, trying to be good by regularly writing to her mother. But nothing makes sense to her lately... not the doctors who tell her she's faking being sick, certainly not the neighbours in her apartment block, nor those she meets at her new school, in Buenos Aires. All that Zelia wants is friends and family, to play football without being labelled and for her dad to take her passion seriously. As Zelia journeys through her teens, she discovers that when it comes to identity, she doesn't make compromises.
