Palhati, a primary school teacher, and his students share the same passion for football. When he was a child, Palhati dreamed of being a football player, but his dream was quelled by his father. Twenty years later, he connects with a group of children who love football like he used to. On the edge of the Taklimakan Desert, the wind blows a football through the sand to Palhati’s feet. The football “sent by Heaven” reignites his passion and changes the fate of Palhati and his students.
