- Summary:
- In the outskirts of Rome, six teams compete in the women's soccer championship, the Las Leonas Trophy. All recent immigrants to Italy, and the majority from South America, the participants work busy lives as caregivers and house cleaners throughout the city. LAS LEONAS follows the daily struggles, dreams, and frustrations of these women; each with their own story of emigration and family history, but united by a shared passion for soccer. Amidst the pressures of work and the loneliness of adapting to life in a foreign country, the championship offers a vital source of freedom and social belonging.
