GER25 Winners

German, Kurdish with English subtitles
Sieger Sein
Eleven-year-old Mona and her family have fled from Syria to Berlin. Her new public school is chaotic, the teachers are frazzled, and the students are frustrated. Mona can barely speak German and struggles to find her place in this new life.
When Mona's special talent in football is recognised by one of the teachers, she lands a spot on the girls' football team. But she soon discovers that playing with the other girls is more difficult than expected and she remains an outsider. With a tournament approaching, the girls soon realise that if they want a chance to win, they will need to put their differences aside, stick together and work as a team.
Winner of the 2024 German Film Award for Best Children’s Film, Winners is a charming and uplifting coming-of-age story about the importance of resilience, teamwork, friendship, and belonging.
