Through inspiring narration and striking imagery, the short film shows how these cultures, though distinctive, come together through the tradition and competition of fútbol. Told through the voices of the fans themselves, the film shows how these communities have not only shaped, but been shaped by, the sport of soccer. Far beyond the city limits of Los Angeles, these fans carry a sense of pride for their countries, backgrounds, values and traditions – showing how, for many, fútbol has become a way of life. For LA Galaxy, the team’s cultural identity aligns with its Chicano and Central American fanbase. The film further portrays the innate culture of Galaxy by featuring elements like Low Rider culture – with its cars, bikes, aesthetics, and ways of talking and dressing. It also shows Galaxy’s connection to some iconic Central American people and places such as the mural of Padre Romero, El Salvador’s national hero, and El Rincon Hondureño, an iconic Honduran restaurant.
