Jamshid, an Iranian American primary school counselor, builds a world-class Ultimate Frisbee team from the immigrant and refugee students arriving at his inner-city public school in Seattle. As their parents struggle to make a home and living, Jamshid helps students cope with grief and loss, while teaching conflict resolution and sex education in the classroom. In a divided country, in one of America’s most expensive cities, this funny, fiery counselor and underdog team prove that love wins.
