How’s that quiet boy sitting at the back of the bus, full of fans on their way to a football match? ¿The shy boy is really a girl disguised as a boy. But it’s not just herself, as there are many women in Iran who like football. They are arrested at the stadium entrance before the match starts and locked in a nearby place with other women, dressed as men too. At the end of the match, all of them will be taken to the anti-vice brigade’s, but before that, they are tortured as they can hear the shouts, screams and applauses of a match they cannot see. They must listen to a soldier who knows nothing about football telling them what’s going on. But these girls are not prepared to give up and will keep on thinking of new ways of sneaking in football matches.
