"Hi, my name is Dudu." "That means bug." "I'm going to demonstrate to you how to make a football in Africa." "First of all you need the ingredients." "Most important is you need a condom." "It doesn't matter what kind." "I get mine from the UN." "But any kind will do, except Blackjacks." "Condoms can stop HIV AIDS spread." "If my mother and father had one, maybe then they would still be here." "So please, be safe sexing." "In football world, Didier Drogba says, "Football is better than sex."" "So make football, not war." "This bit takes time." "Let me tell you some of the famous people that wear condoms." "First of all, all the players in the World Cup will be wearing them." "Rooney, Kaká, Henry," "Drogba, Ronaldo and Messi." "To keep them safe and make them play better." "One world coming together." "So just do it." "All the presidents wear condoms." "Nelson Mandela, Paul Kagame." "And President Obama." "If President Obama wears one, then you can too!" "Remember, kids." "Play safe and enjoy the game." "You know it makes sense." "So, what do we do?" "Kick it!" "350." "2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9... 370!" "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9... 380!" "Somebody get Dudu." "Whoaarrr!" " Hey, Nico." "We have picture." " Sure." "Welcome to the World Cup." "Where are you going?" "Dudu, quick." "He's going to break the record." "7, 8... 9... 400!" "Hey, kid!" "Watch out!" "Hey, let me through." "480!" "Hey, Dudu." "Where were you?" "4, 5, 6 7, 8 9, 490!" "1 2, 3, 4, 5 6, 7, 8 9, 500!" " Move." " 501!" "Bad plan!" "503!" "Why did you do that?" "How many times do I have to say?" "Focusing, focusing..." "Hey, Dudu." "Hey!" " Why didn't you carry on?" " Didn't you see?" "I got the record." "Do you think Ronaldo would be satisfied with 502?" "Why only break the record, yet you could smash it and mash it?" "You're worse than my mother." "Do you think you can do that again with a real football?" "It's easier with a real football." "Everyone knows that." "Jean-Baptiste." "I'm working with FIFA." " Do you know FIFA?" " You think we're monkeys?" "Beat it, kid." "Am I talking to you?" "You talk to him, you talk to me." "I'm his manager." "Do you know of the trial in Kigali Stadium tomorrow?" "Sure." "FIFA is looking for young African footballers to represent their countries at the opening ceremony of the World Cup." "And I tell you, you have a very, very good chance of being selected." "The trial is tomorrow." "National Stadium in Kigali." "When you get there, ask for Philippe Baku." "If he sees these skills of yours, in one month you'll be at the World Cup." "World Cup." " Do you need money for the bus?" " Yeah, we do." "Don't be late." "I want you in the team for the dream." "Africa United." "Fabrice, it's me." "Fabrice, it's me!" "We're all over the moon now!" "I can't wait to tell Beatrice." "Hey, I have something for B." "I tried to get more but Anna was watching." "Hey, my ten percent." "The tasty way to end your day." "OK, boss." "'Dear Lord." "Thank you for the day." "'Please help us get money for food, football and school.'" "After that... books." "Especially ones about diseases." "Amen." " Hey, honey." "I'm home." " Hey, Dudu." "Dinner time." " Did you steal it?" " No." " Father Ambrose?" " No." " World Vision?" " Fabrice." " He stole them for you?" " From his parents." "That's not stealing." "That is sharing." "It's only sharing if his parents know they're sharing." " Obama. "Yes, we can!"" " From Mrs Kabera, the professor?" "She's not the only smart one." "I'm smart, too." "Look at this." " Eh!" "For school!" " Not this time, sister." "This is for the journey." "What journey?" "Africa United." " Fabrice?" " Oh, shit." " Revising?" " Mm-hm." "Geography." "Of course, this is a geography video." "And no doubt you can tell me the capital of Brazil?" "Rio?" "I was trying to work out how he does this thing." "It could help me... get selected." "Selected for what?" "For this team, called Africa United." "The team for the dream." "Africa doesn't need dreams." "It needs to wake up." "And so do you." " But, Ma, I have a real chance..." " Fabrice!" "You need to start thinking about real life instead of all this football." "You think David got to be a doctor in America by watching videos?" "I don't want to be a doctor in America." " I want to play football in Africa." " Enough!" "Anna." "You can lay for two." "Mr Kabera won't be here until the weekend." "And I'm also away tomorrow night." "Have you seen the new Time magazine?" "Brasilia." "It's Brasilia." "'Dudu, have you taken your goodies?" "'" " 'Yeah." "Story time?" "' - 'Yes, please.'" "'A long time ago, maybe a thousand, hundred years ago, 'before anyone got sick or had to pay for school, 'there lived a football manager and his sister, 'the world famous doctor.'" "'B?" "B?" "'Night, night." "'Sleep tight.'" "That's 10,000 for a family." "Ah, you're always putting the price up!" "Come on, let's go." " Dudu." "You ready?" " Yeah, come on." " Have we got tickets?" " Shhh..." "She's our ticket." "But we have money." "Trust the manager." " What is this story?" " It's about a woman." "She goes to a hospital and she gets a test for HIV." "And she's positive." "But she gets treatment." "That's good." "When I'm a doctor, I'll find the cure." "Hey, do you know that peanuts are Adebayor's favourite food?" " He's like a gazelle." " Really?" "He eats little almonds all through the day." "That's why he's a good player." "Sure." "You need some?" "Hey!" "Now, come on." " Thank you." " Hey, what's in the case?" "Manager's stuff." "You'd better give me the card." "I need to tell you the code in case anything happens to me." "It's your new record." "You remember it?" "502." "Not 501." " The new record." " Yes." "I won't breathe a word." "Hey, wake up." "Ticket." "Hey..." "He wants to see the ticket." "Let's go down." "Look at the loser Dangabangas." "Who needs tickets?" "I've got one month to get this team together and I still don't have Chad or Liberia." " This kid was special, Philippe." " They're all special, Jean." "We have some good kids already, and it's getting late." "Hey, there it is." "Let's go." " Was your kid better than this?" " A totally different class." "This kid showed up." " What?" " Look up, you ostrich!" " Keep your shape!" " Excuse me, Uncle." "Do you know the way to the National Stadium?" "The National Stadium?" "It's in the capital, Kinshasa." "About a thousand miles that way." " Pass the ball, you clown!" " Mark your man!" "You mean Kigali, right?" "Kigali?" "Kigali's in Rwanda." "Hey, baboon!" "Then, where are we?" "You, my friends are in the Congo." "The wrong bus, you say?" " Yes, but we got on at..." " Ruhengeri, you say." "We live in Ruhengeri." "We meant to get the Kigali bus." "And you drove into a country without going through immigration?" "We didn't know it was a crossing." "Do you have any kind of ID?" "I assist Nico's TV Repairs in Ruhengeri and work for United Nations AIDS programmes." "Do you use a condom, Mama?" "You can have this one, if you like." "It's extra strong for extra pleasure."

"I'm meant to be at this trial in Kigali at 2:00." "Please, you must let us back." "What are you going to do with us?" "Trust the manager, you said." "I thought the bus was for Kigali." "You didn't think to check?" "Keep you hair up." "I'm working on a plan." " I'm going to get you there." " It's too late." "The trial started four hours ago." "Leave the tacticals to me." "These... children came in today." "The older one is likely a deserter from the rebel groups." "Not entirely sure about the other three yet." "Probably just fleeing the attacks in Goma." "Do I smell or something?" "You might have the flu of pigs." "I do not have swine flu." "This is an international emergency." "There has been a big outbreak of mistakes." "He is not used to these conditionings." "He's used to plasma TV." "We have to get back to Rwanda." " How can you eat this?" " It's good." "I'll have it." "Fabby." "This is a small hitch up." "You can still be in the team for the dream." "The dream is over." "Wake up." "He's upset." "And as a manager, you have to know how to handle that." "Right now, he can't see the wood for the bees." "Trees." "Man alive!" "Fabrice, look." "We'll miss the trials in Rwanda, but we are already in Congo." "If we keep going, presto bingo bongo, we're into South Africa." "It's not that far." "Don't be crazy, Dudu." "South Africa is miles away." "It's impossible." "Impossible is nothing." " No signal." " Thanks for the food..." "And help Fabrice get to the World Cup." "Amen." "This is crazy." "How will we travel, or eat, or cross borders?" "My parents would kill me if they knew I was even thinking about this." "The next time your parents see you, you will be in the stadium doing your silky skills in front of Mr and Mrs Obama." "They will be as proud as parrots." "I'm telling you, Fabrice." "No." "I have exams." "You wouldn't understand." "Hey, I can get you across the first border." "Then you are on your way." "The nice Mzungu lady is going to help us." "She has no power here." "If you stay you will never get out of the Congo." "What do you mean?" "Men are here to take anyone who looks healthy and strong." " They'll make you fight in the war." " But we're safe here." "You can sit here and wait to be taken, or you can come with me." "I don't even know you." "I'm Foreman George." "Let me show you something." "Those are the men." "They will find a way in here." "We do not have much time." " Why should we trust you?" " Look, kid..." "If you ever want to see Rwanda or your mama and papa again, you have to trust me." "Three." "Gather tomorrow..." "Tulu." "Come, quick, quick!" "Faster, faster!" "Hurry up." "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up." "Hey!" "Come back!" "Go!" " Hey, you." "Stop!" " Go, go, go!" "Get back here!" "Hey!" "You need the lights." "I salute your tacticals, Foreman George." "Take us to Soccer City, please, driver." "Hey!" "This is a nice team bus." "You need to change gear." "Road block." "Say you are kids in transit to South Congo." " We're kids in transit." " But you're taking us..." " Just do it." " Just do it." " Salut." " We're kids in transit." " Arsenal." " Yeah." " Champions." " Oh..." "Seatbelts." "Be safe!" "We should be at the border by now." "You don't even know where you're going." "What's that sound?" " Who are they?" " It's the men you saw at the camp." "What do they want?" "Maybe they want their jeep?" "It's not the jeep they want." "Will they take us to the camp?" "Get down!" "Foreman George, faster!" "Shit!" "Have they stopped?" "They're stuck." "Oh, yes!" " We did it." " What's that smell?" "Too good." "Too strong." " What's that smoke?" " Oh, no!" "Foreman George!" "What's wrong with the engine?" "George, fix it!" "I can't see!" "Get off!" "Where's George?" "What are you doing?" "Be careful, Dudu." "George?" "George?" "Run." "Get off the road." "Run." "Hey!" "Get off." "They've gone." "Somewhere they're here in disguise." "Foreman George!" "I know you can hear me, brother!" "The jungle is not big enough to hide you!" "Ah, it is Kodak moment." "We have to keep moving." "How does he know your name?" "No, wait." "Those men are after him, not us." "They are after all of us now." " Guys, did you see that boom?" " Yes, Dudu." "We would've been roasting and toasting like goats!" "Let's go." "Foreman George is not good." "He took a bashing on his head." "Wow!" "Oh, I think no one has been here for a thousand years." "Dudu, look." "Ah, a king must have stayed here." "I like this hotel." "After a long day being chased by rebels, relax with nuts." "What's that smell?" "I think Foreman George pooped in his sleep." "Dudu, look at this." "Hey, he's got money." " How much?" " I don't know." " A big amount." " Enough to get to the World Cup?" "You know why those men were chasing us?" "This is probably theirs." "We can't have anything to do with this money, or him." " We have to leave him." " Those men will hurt him." "Maybe it is his money and he is going to give it away." "I don't think so, B. He's no good." "We're not going any further with you." "We didn't take any." "Shit." "Shit?" "Run!" "It's coming!" "Did you see what it is?" "I don't know." "But it's coming!" " Beatrice, where are you?" " I'm here." "I can't see you." "Ow!" "Does anyone know where we're going?" "To the World Cup." " Where are you going?" " That's not what I asked." "Huh?" "I've never seen the sea before." "Is that America?" "It's Rwanda." "Burundi." "This is Lake Tanganyika." " Burundi?" " They didn't qualify." "They don't even have a team." "Look, whatever you do, we have to get across this lake." "I want to buy this boat." "OK." "Come here." "What's that?" "A hippo." "Hippos cause more deaths in Africa than wars." "That can't be." "It's true." "It was on TV." "They opened up a hippo and found a whole truck inside." "A Mercedes!" "You promised a new story." "New story, coming soon." "A long time ago, maybe a billion hundred years ago, before anyone got sick or had to do exams," "God kept the people happy by giving them football, which is probably his best invention." "Apart from Thierry Henry." "'Soon everyone was playing the game and everyone was happy." "'But one day someone got in a fight." "'No one knows why." "'BIood spilt on the ground and it made these thorns grow." "'These thorns were sharp as lions' teeth." "'They started bursting all balls so no one could play." "'And that's what started the war." "'Soon there was enough blood to fill a million lakes.'" " That's way too much." " Maybe a trillion." "Hey, signal." "And messages." " Who from?" " Shit!" "Ma..." "What do I say?" "She wants to know where I am." "Tell her you got into the team for the dream." "You need to go through more medicals, emotionals and tacticals." "She doesn't even know I went to the trial, Dudu." "This is double bubble trouble." "Continue." "The river of blood..." "OK, so..." "The kid and his sister were so sad." "Their family had all died." "'Just then, God came over."

"The idiot couldn't count." "This will be enough for school for everyone." "Enough to hire a jet and fly to South Africa." " Dudu, this money is worthless." " What?" "They don't use this money in Zimbabwe now." "You were tricked." "You idiot!" " Fabby!" "Why did you do that?" " Now we'll never get to the World Cup!" " He didn't know, Fabrice." " That's just it." "He didn't know." "He has no idea about other countries." "No idea how far it is to the World Cup." "No idea how much food we need, what money is worth." "He just begs and he scams and he steals." "And we all end up paying the price." "Why did I follow you?" " The water gave me a chilling." " Have you had your goodies?" " They've all gone." " How long?" "A few days." "Dudu, look!" "We can rest here." "Quiet." "Hey!" "Are you OK?" "I was thinking..." "If Adebayor was an animal, he'd be a giraffe." "And Rooney, a lion." "No." "Rooney's half tiger, half rhino." "Maybe..." "Maybe Drogba is a lion." "And Ronaldo a baboon?" "Ronaldo is a peacock." "Yeah." "Hey, Dudu." "I didn't mean what I said earlier." "I'm sorry." "I was just so annoyed about the money." "And the boots." "Hey." "Some day kids all over Africa will be wearing Fabrice Fancy boots." "You're the best manager in the world, Dudu." " Kodak..." "...moment." "Fabrice, wake up." "It's Dudu." "Hey, Dudu?" " What is it, boss?" " He needs the hospital." "Please." "We need to take him to a hospital." "Quick." "He's coming for me." "It's OK." "It's Kodak." "Ten per cent." "Ten per cent." "Mama." "You have to let me through." "Lord, we've come a long way." "Dudu is very sick." "And I'm really worried." "'We did some things we shouldn't have." "'We took a jeep and some money." "'But we did give back the money." "Well, most of it." "'Anyway, Dudu has run out of goodies 'and we need some more help." "'Please help him to feel better." "'And please help him get to the World Cup.'" "Amen." "It's Beatrice, yes?" "One of the World Cup walkers." "We didn't walk all the way." "We got buses and a jeep, a truck, and once a car pulled by cows." "Can anyone come to this school?" "Yes, possibly." "Why?" "Would you like to?" "Could I?" "Malaria boy - 1." "TB kid - 0." "Hey, sisters." "This is miraculously quick." "God moves faster than Thierry Henry." " You should know, Sister." " Goodies and God." "A deadly strike force." " This is from school?" " Sister says I can stay here if I want to." "I can study for free." "Dudu, we all could stay." "I have to get there, B. You know that." "Hey, my team." "You are tougher than a buffalo." " You've bounced back." " Hey, Doc." "I'm made of Congo rubber." "You should just have family now." "They're all family." "OK." "We've stabilised your TB." "The fever is gone." "But your CD4 count is very low." "You need ARVs soon." "But we are stocked out." "And the next delivery is in three days." "So I recommend you sit tight for now." "OK?" "Hey, guys." "What's with the down smiles?" "She said your CD4 count is low." "You need ARVs." "You're positive?" "You know me." "I'm always positive." "ARVs?" "What are ARVs?" "They're for people with HIV/ AIDS." "They keep you alive." " Why didn't you tell me?" " We had to concentrate on the game." "Dudu!" "This isn't a game." "It's about life and death." " It's much more important than that." " I can't believe you never told me." "But he gets medicines here, yes?" "Yeah, but not for three days." " And in three days..." " We will be in the stadium." "And the crowd will be roaring like a waterfall." "Look, I can get goodies in South Africa." "Brother, we don't have to do this, just so I can kick a ball in the air." "Hey." "Wake up." "It's not about you, it's not about me." "It's about us." "We are a team." "Africa United." "I've come a long way like this." "Thirteen years." "You can't take me off the field now." "So, what do we do?" "What do we do?" "Kick it." "Hey, guys." "Let's go." "They gave you a uniform?" "It looks great." "Did sister say you could keep it?" "Beatrice?" "Dudu?" "I'm not coming to South Africa." "I'm staying here." "Our team doctor has been given a place to study." "I can start school today." "The sister says study's free until college, and then there are skillarships." "It's big." "I can be a doctor one day." "But we are the team." "The team for the dream." "And we're nearly there." "But this is her dream." "Isn't it, B?" "Doctor Beatrice." "This is right, B. It's good." " Will you write to me?" " We will." "We promise." "Thank you, little sister." "Make sure you get goodies in South Africa." " We'll make sure." " We will." "You're the best brother in the world, Dudu." " God is with you." " And always with you." "Be good, OK?" "Study hard." "Keep the prize in your eyes." "Go." "Your dream is that way." "You make me proud as a parrot, B." "You're a good manager, Dudu." "Hey, Dudu." "You didn't finish that story." "Yes." "What about Beatrice?" "I already told her the end." "They were on their way to get the string from the most dangerous place." "'The string grew in a lake where the Cacoochie fish lived." "'And that fish is worse than the Gonginja." "'The kid fought that fish for a long time." "'The rains came and went." "'Still they were fighting." "'But finally, the kid beat that Cacoochie." "'So at last they had the rubber, 'the plastic bag and the string." "'AII the ingredients to make a ball that never bursts." "'But the Cacoochie fish had given the kid a slow puncture." "'The kid's sister tried to fix him up but she couldn't stop the bleeding." "'She didn't have the medicines yet." "'They had to get that ball to the game." "'But the kid couldn't walk." "'So, the team carried him.'" " We don't have papers." " Go this way." "It's clear." "Stop!" "Four kids travel 3,000 miles without papers to get to the World Cup." "Everyone is going to the World Cup." "Except me." "Even refugees." "And you want me to believe this?" "You, invited to be in the World Cup?" "We have a card." "Give it to him, Dudu." "This is the man who's organising the ceremony." "It looks like you found this in a rubbish dump." " Get out of my office." " He's special." "Get out!" "What's now?" "That was my last ball." "No more ingredients." "Fabrice, what are you doing?" "My friend wants his ball back." "Hey!" "My friend wants his ball back!" "Get back to Zimbabwe, boy." "Fabrice!" "Come on, man." "Get the ball." "Show them your silky skills, Fabrice." "Yes!" "Go, Fabrice!" "Whoo!" "Yes, Fabrice!" "Hey, kid." "Hey!" "Your friend wasn't lying." "You are special." "He's special." "Call Mr Baku, you'll see." "Jonte?" "Sam." "Tell me, do you have a Jean-Baptiste or Philippe Baku there?" "He's running..." "Yes." "Tell him I have someone here from Africa United at the border." "Hey, we're all busy here." "What time does the ceremony start?" "It will just be me and him." "OK, thanks, Jonte." " Come on, kid, the clock's ticking." " No." "It's either all of us or none of us." "We're a team." " You don't look much of a team." " Give us a chance to prove it." "Penalties." " What do we do?" " Kick it!" "Yes!" "Yes!" "This is shaped like pears." " Hey, come on, shoot the ball." " Come on, Celeste." "Let's go before I change my mind." "Let's go, let's go." "Hey, Dudu." "Wake up!" "Move!" "Come on, Dudu." "You made it." " Wow, it's so big." " Soccer City." "George, look!" "Come on, come on." "Hey." "He's coming." "Philippe Baku." "I'm sorry, kids." "Mr Baku is busy." " What?" "But we came all this way." " We're too late." "That isn't how it ends." "Dudu!" "Hey, help!" "Let's move him up. 1, 2, 3..." "Let's just get the sleeves out." "1, 2, 3..." "IV line is up." " We're going to mix the drugs for you." " OK, thanks." "Dudu..." "We made it to the stadium, thanks to you." "Come on, little boss." "Be strong, brother." "Hey." "You want to know how the story ends?" "The team carried the ball to the great game." "But the kid wasn't strong enough to kick it." "He had to find someone who was special." "He remembered his friend." "The best player he ever knew." "Gave him the ball." "And told him, "Brother, you kick it off."" "Jean, I really don't have time for this." "Here." "This is the special kid I told you about in Kigali." "Come." "He came all this way, Philippe." "He showed up." "That's a long way to come." "Is your friend OK?" "He's our manager." " And who are you?" " Africa United." "The team for the dream." "I think you are." "We can fit him in, correct?" " I think so." " Are you serious?" "Come on, we still have time." "We can try." "Are you ready, kid?" "No way!" "Did you hear that?" "We're going to the World Cup." " Where are you going?" " Dudu?" "'His friends worked like a smooth harmony, 'and carried that dream all the way." "'And the kid was happy." "'And there was the biggest party the world had ever seen.'" "'But the kid heard a voice." "'It was God telling him, "Hey, kid, you did good."" "'That's how you make football in Africa.'" "# Are we united?" "So are we united?" "# Ooh, yeah!" "# Have you got one love?"
