In conflicted Jerusalem, a group of rough and tough guys sets out to create a seemingly impossible team.
Their sport of choice is American football, a strategic and highly physical game. The players face complex personal lives and seven strong teams.
However, it is their anti-establishment spirit that holds them together - religious and secular, Israeli settlers and Palestinians – all united in the desire to win the Israeli Football League championship and beat the system that has so often beaten them.
