About This Movie
From a Thorn Comes a Rose: Kick-Off paints a vivid portrait of resilience and community, centered around Hestia F.C., a football team comprised of women refugees. The film's pacing feels natural, letting us soak in the daily lives of Shogra, Leyla, and Shakiba as they navigate both mundane moments—like cooking and piano lessons—and the excitement of training. There's a warmth to the atmosphere, as these young players forge bonds in their makeshift home. Yorgos Pyrpassopoulos captures the beauty of their struggle, building a narrative that’s as much about personal growth as it is about team spirit. The practical effects are subtle, with the focus remaining on genuine performances that convey hope and solidarity amidst hardship.
