Summary
Filmed over five years, CAPTAINS OF ZAATARI follows two best friends, Mahmoud and Fawzi, refugees from Syria who now live in the Zaatari camp in Jordan. As teeneragers and like many boys their age, they dream of becoming professional football players. Despite being locked in a space that has no facilities or opportunity for training, they remain hopeful and full of dreams. Their stories take an unexpected turn when Aspire Academy, one of the world's leading sports academies, sends scouts to the camp to identify promising footballers.
