The journey of a university football team transformed by the events they experience, tackling their way through Egypt to become the first British sports team to play in Palestine.
In the year of the Arab Spring, a British football team head to Egypt armed with a football and a desire to engage with local communities. But the Egyptian revolution unfolds around them forcing the team to rethink their agenda. Do they carry on with their journey into Palestine to become the first UK team to play there?
As much about an emotional journey as a physical one, ‘Over The Wall‘ is a fresh take on Middle East conflicts and personal responsibility bearing witness to a group of young men finding their political voice.
