The Home Game is a feelgood underdog story about an Icelander’s clumsy attempt to complete his father’s failed mission: To finally get their beloved fishing village a home game on the unused football pitch he built 25 years prior. Kari Vidarsson embraces his father’s old coaching philosophy and enlists anyone keen to play, including a fisherman and his son, a pessimistic church warden and a mother of three. In order to get the long awaited home game he impulsively registers his team of endearing underdogs in the prestigious FA Cup with only a 50/50 chance of getting to play at their lava field home. The inclusion of their female player puts the game at risk as mixed gender teams are deemed illegal by the FA, resulting in an unprecedented sequence of events on game day and an incredible moment by the unlikely female hero.
